Bible Note: JRdoc, don't try to turn the tables on me, sir or madam. You brought up the issue, I merely asked a question. The burden of proof is on you. Prove why Arminianism is a philosophy and Calvinism isn't. They're both "isms" and both had their genesis in the minds of two men. If you think Calvinism is the better choice, go with it. I couldn't care less. But I am disgusted with seeing Calvinism being lauded while Arminianism is being bashed as a mere philosophy. I'm neither Calvinist nor Arminian (and don't try to convince me that I MUST be one or the other!). Though Calvinists and Arminians both may hold that their interpretations and theological systems are based on Scripture and I am not here to argue the merits of the claims of either, it is rather obvious that neither of them IS Scripture. --Hank |
