Calvinism doesn’t seem to agree that all Scripture is useful for teaching, so most tend to ignore the passages they can’t just explain away.

If you’re gonna throw around catch phrases, you could at least support the point with something worthy of discussion.

At best, this is a gross mischaracterization of Calvinism; at worst, outright slander.

That accusation can be leveled at the opponents of Calvinism just as easily and IMO with more validity.

(Forgive me if this was discussed in the thread - I've not read the entire thread yet and don't have time to do it right now - but I thought your comment warranted a response.)
