    I post my views to let the reader decide which view is more biblical. I know I can change no one's mind. But I want my view to be clearly understood and not misrepresented as some on here have misrepresented mine.

    But that list is true. Most people have closed minds, both Cals and Arms.

    Ironically enough, your post was not there yet when I typed mine.


    BTW, did you notice how I used the quote feature?

    Oh ....I ihave not seen that so much. I think that many would want to make sure the arminian type person has heard a clear presentation of the 5 pts before they reject it for a caricature which is the normal posting.

    Calvinists and Arminians both need to be proselytized. They're both in grave error, holding to faux gospel and pseudo Christianity

    9 or 10 don't remember where the count is ) All threads will be derailed and eventually become an argument for and against Calvinistic thinking which will change no ones mind.

    11. Threads criticizing the way things are on the BB but the poster still stays around and keeps participating in these activities that 'changes no one's mind'.

    (must be some other gratification obtained here other than 'changing someone's mind')

    So it is just a one way street, huh? No one on the Synergist side is trying to convert Monergists?

    I would not say that the categories you listed changes no ones mind. It is true that you seldom see a change of mind in the thread itself. Changes of position take time. I can tell you that I abandoned dispensationalism because of a thread on another board. That thread lead to serious study on my part. It culminated with a change in my view. I know Arminians who changed their view because of a message board conversation.

    One of the things I always keep in mind is that the audience of a thread is often much larger than the participants. Many people are lurkers. They read the threads but do not post. I used to be like that years ago on another board. I read the threads with great interest but never participated.

    You never know who is reading.

    12 (i think) Threads about freedom of choice/will or the lack thereof which change no ones mind.

    13 (I think) Threads about the war of northern aggression which change no ones mind.

    I had others, but forgot... :(

    Psalms 133:1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

    133:2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

    133:3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

    As long as brethren disagree nothing will ever change on the BB!... If you believe it will you must be a newbie... Brother Glen

    Maybe it would better if the BB was reorganized where only threads that could change people's minds were allowed.
