THERE IS NO NEED OF CONVICTION WITH CALVINISM YOUR PREDESTINED.

Okaaaay.... don't see how you got from A --> B. Heard that before, but don't know where it came from. It's not something I've ever heard a Calvinist teach, nor is it a good and necessary logical inference that there is no need for conviction if God predestined that it would happen.

THERE WAS REALLY NO NEED FOR THE ATONEMENT YOUR PREDESTINED.

Considering one of the five points of classical Calvinistm is explicitly about a definate atonement, I think we can discount this statement.

YOUR PART OF THE GOOD OL BOYS CLUB PREDESTINED ELECTED SELECTED

You completely misunderstand how a Calvinist believes himself to be elected -- believing it to be a matter for pride rather than a matter for quiet astonishment. Smile when you say "PREDESTINED ELECTED SELECTED."

NO NEED TO PREACH THE GOOD NEWS YOUR GOING TO HEAVEN WEATHER YOU WANT TO OR NOT.

Dude, you're just wrong. And you can't spell either.

"SHOUTING" doesn't make your post more logical; it only makes it harder to read.

You're right. These arguments go round and round and round. I can understand people disagreeing with points of the article in question or even the theology but to bring up the same tiring arguments they might as well just list them in one location and link us there.

Perhaps they should begin with the list you've started. I would also recommend this list include that Calvinists:

Believe Hitler was a good thing.

Fail to let man freely choose whether he would like to spend eternity in Heaven or Hell. (Difficult choice???)

Have the adacity to say that God is in control and refuses to give man His sovereignty.

Believe that God is the author of evil.
