Of what use are distinctions like "Arminian" and "Calvinist" if we're all just waiting around to see which side of the election fence we finally wake up on? .

You lost me there, Bro. But I don't really like talking about forum members to other forum members, anyway. Not that I've never been guilty of that, but I like to try, at least, to avoid it. :)

I was a Calvinist for 18 years before even knowing what it meant or was called, if that helps. I didn't even know there was anything to object to with regard to predestination. Probably millions of folks are walking around today without a thought in their heads about some people being born for...
