LOL..you are giving the predominate Catholic view of Protestantism, not the average view of Calvinist to their Arminian brethren

On the contrary, I am just reading what Calvinists were writing on the other thread, the words satanic and blasphemy were used multiple times. Did I miss the portion of that thread were Calvinists were admonishing the poster for what he wrote?

Most Calvinists were Arminians BEFORE they became Calvinists.. They became Calvinists because of their study..

Do you have anything to substantiate the claim of most or is it just many that you know?

I was saved as a Wesleyan, I am saved as a Calvinist... salvation is all of God not doctrine.

Do you believe that what you believed as a Wesleyan was satanic?

It is presumptuous for a Catholic to speak for MANY Calvinists.

Turnabout is fair play.

Catholics theologians debate the church fathers, and liberal Catholicism, and the traditions such as the way mass or communion should be done

Protestants debate scripture and doctrine..

Are you saying that what Catholics debate IS NOT Scripture and doctrine?

Why don't you ask how many were raised as calvinists.??

No, I am a fan of the work and person of John Wesley , who is often quoted by reformed people ..I think he was wrong about some doctrine.. but then I think Calvin was wrong on some too.

Turnabout is fair play.

Well not really..see you do not have a choice of what to believe and still call yourself a Catholic.. and many of us know what the church teaches and so indeed most OBSERVANT Catholics believe what Rome tells them

Are you saying that what Catholics debate IS NOT Scripture and doctrine?

Yep..full lockstep with Rome ..Rome defines a handful of scripture and you must accept that as the correct definition.. the same with doctrine.. "no Iron sharpens iron" allowed in Catholicism
