IIRC, and I do...

LOLOL.

Thanks for the truth, Reggie. Rome is losing its grip on all of Europe. One in 8 is a practicing Roman Catholic in Portugal! That's astounding. If, after ridding themselves of error, men pass through disbelief on their way to a better understanding of God and faith, then so be it.

But "men" are completely depraved, and if they are not elect, what good does "a better understanding of God and faith" do for them? They're going to hell anyway, right? They have no hope, if they were condemned from all eternity.

I'm trying to learn, REALLY I am. It's just all so confusing to a non-Calvinist Catholic lover.
