No, the problem is: Calvinists can't seem to agree on what Calvinism is. You never know who you're talking to. Makes it just an annoyance to anyone who isn't chained to the label, you know? It's not worth the fuss and falderal. Get together on it and get back to us.

What are scriptural sources? What do you need?

What say we all just chuck Calvin and Spurgeon and Wesley and even Strong and Thayer and just go with the B-I-B-L-E ♫ Yes, that's the book for me... ♫ Just a thought

That sounds familiar.
