***Have you seen this movie? ***

Saw it this weekend. "Almighty" is a bit of overstatement in the movie's concept of God. The God in the movie has a strict rule against messing with free will. As a result He is quite frustrated and settles for the best He can do.

There is the typical crudities and general blasphemies you would expect when Jim Carey is God. But the "free will" angle is fascinating. It really illustrates what Calvinists have been telling Arminians here for many moons.

I am so thankful God messed with my heart and gave me the will to love Him.

Drsteve....dont you have mormons to play with

Hope your holiday was enjoyable, but of course it was predestined to be.

I particularly enjoyed the scene where Carrey asks God into his heart

hey help me out with a question.... I was staring at my kids the other day trying to think hard (as hard as an arminian can think, pondering calvinism) - how do I tell if theyre elect or unelect - when does that happen? -

we can play this game if you want- I just see it as a rehash on the arminian bash, when there is such a target rich environment over on fair

your silly pal rev

besides - youre not even a real calvinist - I thought double pre-desters were the only card carrying ones......OP told me LOL

- youre only a friggin 4 pointer - who's right - you - OP or the Amyrauldian?

whats on your servetus burger tonight?

you know I love you like a brother right? LOL
