Below are 5 common misconceptions about Calvinism. Please post either in either pro or anti arguments on any of these 5 misconceptions. (yes, they are all misconceptions)
1. It kills evangelism
2. It is a man-made doctrine
3. It eliminates free will and human responsibility
4. It promotes “easy believism”
5. It makes God a moral monster
I don't embrace Calvinist doctrine to any serious degree, but then I don't embrace a lot of doctrines established by congregations or denominations to any serious degree. I have happily worshiped with Calvinist congregations and had no doubt whatsoever that I was among Christians. And I have no problem with those who embrace the Calvinist doctrines.
But let me play devil's advocate for a bit.
The one burning question I think for Calvinists to answer is how can a loving God allow people to be born who have no chance for salvation from the moment of conception?
