I don't think I'd ever go this far. Arminianism, taken to its natural conclusion, ends in Rome. But there's a long road before it gets there.

Arminians worship free will, as does Rome. But at least Arminians do not bow down to and pray to dead people and call Mary their "co-redeemer" and believe their pastors to be "another Christ" - (an "alter Christus.")

There's more hope for Arminians than for RCs because their strong delusions aren't as deadening and thoroughly anti-Scriptural as those of the papacy.
