“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son so a few pre-selected and irresistably-drawn people that believe in Him might not perish but have everlasting life.”

- John 3:16, Calvinist Bible

All this statue BS going on reminds me of the various Pharaohs destroying the images of their predecessors.

I can relate to this article. As a Lutheran, I am quite angry at the Methodists. They trigger me. As soon as I can find a statue of that Method guy, down it goes!

Calvin was a nasty piece of work. I am not so sure he was right and the Arminians were wrong. If you have kill people to enforce your way of thinking, it presents a problem with your moral argument.

Calvin and Jacob are irrelevant. I hope people don't frame their positions on what men say. The only question is what do the Scriptures teach?

Are there maverick molecules in the universe....or not?

This time I could tell.

The Bee is the only source I know that regularly takes pot shots at Calvinists.

Great satire! I love Babylon Bee!

As an Arminian, I’ll wear a T-shirt ‘Free Will Matters’.

What did the Calvinist say after he fell down the stairs?
Thank God that’s over with. My preacher loves that one a little too much TBH.

For some reason the Bee's Calvinist articles are predestined to be funnier than the rest.

Calvinist Dog Corrects Owner: ‘No One Is A Good Boy

“We’ve been over this, Matt. We’re all corrupted—every one of us,” Rupert reportedly said to his owner after stopping mid-stride to address the glaring theological error. “How can you call me a good boy when we have all been marred by the effects of sin?”
