SD - The Protestant idea that we play no part whatsoever in our day-to-day activities and choices just doesn't seem realistic to us.

OR - You sidestepped this one. I claim you made it up. It simply isn't true.

SD - Exhibit A, from Jim in 52599:

JH - I didn't struggle with my will power, or summon my inner strength, or beat my chest, God healed me and I walked away from smoking with no more then a few dreams that I was smoking again.

You missed that he said that he prayed to God to give him strength ?

Following the conversation on OSAS, I must say I'm somewhat confused as to how one can believe in OSAS and NOT be a Calvinist. Yet, it seems many who believe OSAS find themselves poles apart from the Calvinists. Could someone please explain the difference to me?

An honest question.
