[P-Marlowe]

The non-Calvinists simply cannot abide the Calvinist to speak freely, without challenges, quotes of dubious sources, and when all else fails, ad hominem attacks on either Calvin or the Calvinist, none of which serve to enlighten the serious enquirer. Since they can't refute the doctrine, and certainly will not abide it being taught, their only resourse is to create so much noise and confusion that the conversation gets lost in the noise.

Well nobody. Nobody is stopping you from posting your ideas here. I'm not going to join in the discussion and I will advise all nonCalvinists to avoid posting to this thread like the plague. You and your whole GRPL can have the freedom to discuss this subject to your heart's content and you will get no grief from me, xzins, Corin or any other nonCalvinst upon whom I have any influence.

The thread is all yours. Ping your GRPL and have at it. Mr. Pilgrim eagerly awaits your responses to the question of whether "Calvinism makes God the Author of Sin".

It's all yours. I'm outa here.

Finally!!! If this thread has not been totally destroyed, I will wait for thoughtful discussion.
