Actually, most Arminians are semi-Pelagian, since they do have a doctrine of original sin. Finney just happens to be a bit more repulsive than most Arminians in his understanding of sin.

I've always lumped all the non-Calvinist as Arminianist or Semi-Pelagians. Even though I knew some were closer to the truth, I've also considered almost there as being also not even close. The almost Christian is a non Christian. Well anyway from now on I'll try to determine whether the non-Calvinist are Semi-Pelagian or worse Pelagian. As far as Finney is concerned, I definitely haven't like him for a few years, and I'm not really excited about John Wesley, and if I understand history right Charles Wesley wasn't to excited about his brother either, for he had to be talked into including his brother into his crusades when he really didn't want him along. John became the side kick that should of been kicked out of the show. I'm probably get some flames thrown in my direction for that last comment.
