Best thing about Calvinism!

What a surprise --yet another sarcastic thread. I don't consider myself a Calvinist, but most people I know who identify themselves as such are godly, sincere, devoted lovers of God, His word, and His children. Not perfect, but certainly not heretical or harmful. When I read descriptions here of what Calvinists are like, I fail to see the resemblance. Too bad we don't see more of the real world here, instead of caricatures and cynicism.

I am Calvinistic, not Calvinist, but, thank you, Nomad, for your kind words.

Hardsheller,

Good one!

It's hard to be argumentative with someone who has a sense of humor.

But the best thing about Calvinism, in my opinion, is their lack of reproductibility. It is something we have to fight only every century or so. Once they actually convince their "converts" that there is nothing really to do, reproduction ceases and they tend to die out.

This is about as low a caricature as I have ever seen.

The facts about Calvinism is being distarted grately by many people. The Calvinist believers that I know are very missions minded. One Calvinist University professor that I know goes around the world to teach about God's grace to people other people will not think of teaching. My nephew is a Calvinist, and he is a missionary in a very remote spot in the world with his wife and four children doing Bible translation for people that have never had a Bible. It is sad that so many people do not understand the heart of a true Calvinist is simply believeing what the Bible says as being the truth.
