lirazel: An outdoor scene from the film Picnic at Hanging Rock ([fall] are you trying to save my soul?)
So I know that the big movement amongst young Christians right now is the Reformed tradition, which, being Arminian, I find really interesting. And just because I'm wondering, I was hoping those of you on my flist (and random lurkers!) who identify as Christian would mind telling me how you feel about the whole Free Will vs. Predestination thing.

If I haven't made it abundantly clear at this point, I'm Arminian, and frankly, Calvinism really scares me. But! I am all about grace, so I'm definitely not looking to start any arguments or judge anybody or anything. I'm just really, really interested as to where you fall, theology-wise.

So! Christian friends of mine! Take a poll, please!


[Poll #1771737]

And btw, this poll is pretty much just about how you feel about the nature of salvation. For instance, I don't assume that all of you who pick Arminianism will be dispensationalists or anything like that. Basically what this comes down to is your feelings on the whole TULIP thing. I'm not going to assume anything further about your wider theological thoughts. I'm using these labels because they're straightforward.

The point of this was not to prompt one of those late-night-college conversations where we're all just trying to win points. I'm just interested, so never fear: everyone will play nice! My flist is excellent.
