“The presumption is there. You have made God in your image. It’s exactly backward. You think you have a God that saves you as He wills, but that isn’t what you believe.
You believe your Faith wills it and it is God’s will but it is really your own. You are telling God you are acceptable. Not the other way around.
There is an arrogance to Calvinism”
Congratulations, the above statement has just earned the “Billy Madison” award for the year. It is an honor to bestow this with the following hallowed verse from the classic movie,
“What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.”

It makes perfect sense. This is what Calvinists believe.
They are telling God that they have Faith enough for Him to elect them.
Insulting me isn’t going to change the fact that Calvinism is essentially arrogant.
LOLOL. “Billy Madison” is one of Sandler’s only redeeming accomplishments.
“What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything..”
You don’t like my interpretation of what Calvinists believe?
Perhaps the interpretations given by those who distort what Catholics believe seems to us just as insane and rambling and so distorted they offend.
