"Calvinist" approaches boogeyman status to me. I'm sure they're out there as a community (somewhere?), I've never met one in person nor online, and yet I've heard warnings and huffing and scoffs from every denomination about them (and applied every time to those not remotely Calvinist).

    @Ash_Kvetchum@nicecrew.digital I can steelman the position of predestination by saying that God knows and we can’t, so it’s our job to continuously try to win souls for Christ and live according to His commandments. Few would argue against that concept, even if they have a semantic or linguistic disagreement. The point of this image was to make a 💩 post and discuss predestination.

    @Ash_Kvetchum@nicecrew.digital @BowsacNoodle@poa.st the idea that you might not actually have the agency you think you do is scary to most people

    @Ash_Kvetchum@nicecrew.digital @BowsacNoodle@poa.st Calvinists … I know one, here; he’s a decent chap. Early on in Faith I was a Four-Point Calvinist for nearly a year. Sort of a transitional phase
