Acts 10 does not support calvinism

Don't see it there. Which verse are you referring to?
This happened 3 days after the vision of Cornelius in Acts 10:3. Follow the sequence of time in Acts 10.

44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message.45 The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on Gentiles. 46 For they heard them speaking in tongues[b] and praising God.

Then Peter said, 47 “Surely no one can stand in the way of their being baptized with water. They have received the Holy Spirit just as we have.” 48 So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ.

So
 
Acts 10:1- At Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion in what was known as the Italian Regiment. 2 He and all his family were devout and God-fearing; he gave generously to those in need and prayed to God regularly.


Notice the unregenerate Cornelius was called devout, God-fearing, prayed regularly and Your prayers and gifts to the poor have come up as a memorial offering before God. He is a righteous and God-fearing man etc.........

The above mentioned things go against the calvinists doctrines of total depravity and regeneration.
Cornelius was a Justified, Regenerated, Righteous accepted of God Man who feared God before he ever heard the Gospel and its the reason why God sent him the Gospel to believe. He feared God, and man by nature, in the flesh doesnt fear God Rom 3:18

18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.

So you actually condemned your own beliefs.

Nope. I have made no positive claims. I leave that to you.The burden of proof is yours.
 
Cornelius was like a lot of church goers today. They pray and worship but lack the Holy Spirit. Church's are full of people like this. I've talked to them, but their hearts are hardened. But Cornelius was different, he was seeking the Lord intently, he and all his household.
 
It's all in Acts chapter 10. Read it.

Acts 10:44 - While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word.
ditto- this is what happens when a theological system takes precedence over scripture- in this case its the false teaching of the reformed doctrine of regeneration.

Acts 10:44 isnt regeneration, that was a sign Gift. Whenever Cornelius was given a heart that fears God, thats when he was regenerated, because men by nature dont fear God Rom 3:18

18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Jer 32:39-40


And I will give them one heart, and one way, that they may fear me for ever, for the good of them, and of their children after them:


And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; but I will put my fear in their hearts, that they shall not depart from me.
