Actually I affirmed that most Calvinists wouldn't talk this way in my first post which is just the opposite of tying mainstream Cals to this woman. I also was careful to note the the agreement was only "technical," meaning that the basic facts were the same, but clearly her application is not...which once again I have affirmed in prior posts regarding Calvinists and evangelism as well as in this thread...but yet you continue with accusations about my "intent" without any clear proof of any distortions...

Your initial post implied that mainstream Cals aren't really consistent as the woman in the OP, since they "don't talk that way." The implication being that Cals really ought to be Hypers in order to be consistent. Maybe that's not how you intended it, but it certainly came across that way.

It is not how I intented it, which is why I said, "Those types do give Christians a bad name, just as those who teach "easy believism" do. I believe both are destructive."

As you can clearly see I pointed to both extremes...the extremes of Calvinism (like this woman) and the easy believism extremes of non-Calvinists...both are destructive. That was my intent and that is what I said. I can't help what you read into my intent, but as clearly shown there is no distortion of Calvinism in what I wrote.
