If I may share an observation of a non-Calvinist brother who also serves as teaching staff at Liberty University... This dear brother of mine was a former professor of mine at SWBTS and is now teaching at Liberty U. I love him dearly. Because of me, he remains open in his love for Calvinists. But what saddens him and discourages him is seeing Calvinists poke fun and mock non-Calvinists like in the manner here.

He has seen repeatedly that whenever Calvinists gather together, they tend to make fun of non-Calvinists. But when non-Calvinists gather together, they don't make fun of Calvinists. They talk about sharing Christ with the lost world.

And if anyone wishes to object to this observation, please first consult with Tom Ascol, as he too readily agrees with this all-too-frequent sinful habit among Calvinists. And let's not also forget that Tom Ascol and Ergun Caner are dear friends together. I don't think Tom Ascol would find this thread humorous.

So, I humbly beg to reconsider this April Fool's joke.

This point is well taken, generally.

But considering the comments the Caner bros. have left on the Founders blog over the years I have a hard time believing that Ergun Caner and Tom Ascol are "dear friends." And a Calvinist would have to get up real early in the morning to be more harshly critical of non-Calvinists than the Caners are of Calvinistic Baptists. They were sharply critical of the "Building Bridges" conference and nothing I've ever seen from them indicates that they are interested in building any bridges at all with Calvinistic Baptists.

Will, it was meant as a joke, considering how some people in here have a real disdain for Dr. Ergun Caner. It has become a real tit-for-tat in a rather unpleasant way for some...

On a sidenote, if the mods so desire to close this, have at it.

I think this one's long outlived any usefulness it may have had.
