That is not what happens though. I do have 3 other lists and 1 other 
calendar with several events and todos on them, and when I delete 
"calendar" or "tasks" they each come back within a few seconds.

I feel stupid for not having thought of renaming it though. That seems 
to be working. Thank you.
