Calvinism/Arminianism Humour

How many Arminians does it take to change a lightbulb.

None, the lightbulb changes itself!

What do you get when you cross a Jehovah's Witness and a consistent Calvinist?

Someone who loves to knock on doors, but then doesn't know what to say.

 

Two Arminians and a Calvinist are in an elevator. First Arminian says, "Whenever I'm in the Sears Tower elevator, I like to press a button and go to a floor just to prove how free I am." Second Arminian says, "Whenever I'm in the Sears Tower Elevator, I like to jump up and down to prove I have complete control over my body." Calvinist taps the two Arminians on the shoulder and says, "Scuse me guys, this is the John Hancock."

 

I don't get it. Every major missions movement or revival in the past 500 years has been coupled with Calvinistic doctrine. Could you explain the joke?

 

Hey, it's a joke.

The thread is entitled "Calvinism/Arminianism humour," not "Let's start another fight."

 

i was asking a legitimate question

 

to be honest i don't get the cartoon either. is it drawn by a calvinist or arminian?

 

I didn't get the cartoon either, to be honest.

One, but he must be very very persuasive!

Whetstone, buddy, I think the cartoon was probably drawn by someone who holds to neither of the positions. I'm just guessing. But I think it is swayed in the favor of calvinists, ROFL, because the point was he was a rather unkind, uneducated, er . . . not too smart person.

 

Hope no moderator's daughters are Arminian or they might be offended.

 

Yeah, I hope not too. I'm looking at that and thinking . . . er, oops.

 

ROFL, Tcassidy. . .
