Did you hear the one about the Calvinist who dies and goes to heaven?

He finds a forked path, with two signs. One sign reads: Predestination. The other sign reads: Free Will.

Being a good Calvinist he follows the path marked Predestination and eventually comes to a huge wall with a door. Over the top of the door is the word: Predestination.

He knocks on the door and an angel opens the door and asks him: “Why did you come to this door.”

“I chose to follow the path of Predestination because I’m a Calvinist.”

“You CHOSE?” says the angel. “Wrong door!” And slams the door in the man’s face.

The man is brokenhearted but eventually makes his way back to the fork in the road and takes the other path, whereupon he comes to another huge wall with a door labeled Free Will.

He knocks on that door and again an angel answers and says, “Why did you come to this door?”

“I had no choice!” says the man.

Slam!
