Much of Christian History at Odds With Calvinism

Great article at SEA documenting this:
Prereformation Church History & The Calvinist/Arminian Debate

“Arminian” has responded at SEA (Magic Hand-waving in the Calvinist Cause) to James Anderson’s second rebuttal (The Arminian Cause).  Since SEA does not allow comments, this thread will serve as a place where comments and interactions can take place.

The Five Dilemmas of Calvinism Part 4: A Litany of Inaccuracies and Misrepresentations

More on the Psychology of Calvinism

Billy Birch has written an excellent post on why certain Calvinists might tend to act the way that they do towards non-Calvinists.  It is also a gentle and necessary reminder to us all to conduct ourselves with grace, compassion, and respect when discussing these controversial topics.  Thanks Billy!

Calvinist and Arminian Witnessing

Here are a few YouTube cartoon videos taking a humorous stab at witnessing from the Arminian or Calvinist perspective.  The Calvinist one was done first and the Arminian ones were done in response.  Of course, I think the Arminian ones are better and more accurate.  I also found the Calvinist one a little annoying because of [...]
