Already answered in the affirmative with the added understanding that God is not responsible for man's fallen nature.

Now, I've answered a plethora of your questions but it seems you have been rather lax in answering many of mine, e.g., but not exclusively as there are several others which you have also chosen to gloss over or totally ignore:

1. What have you actually read of John Calvin?
2. What do you make of the verses provided in regard to the crucifixion of Christ?
3. Was the crucifixion an event that occurred by chance or by divine decree?
4. What is the origination of God's foreknowledge and more. See HERE.
5. How do you reconcile your initial statement that you came here to learn what Calvinism teaches yet flatly refuse to read anything that historic Calvinists have written, including my writings?
