A Leninist is a person who follows the teaching of Lenin, which is different. A Barzunite is a person who is like Jacques Barzun. A Calvinist is a person who follows the teaching of John Calvin, which is different. A Sadist is a person who is like the Marquis de Sade. A Benedictine is a person who follows the teaching of St Benedict of Nursia, which is different. These seem less than iron-clad distinctions, but I suspect that there truly is a worthwhile distinction lurking in here somewhere.
