Template talk:Arminianism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Do we need this template? We already have ones for Christianity, Christian theology, Calvinism, and (most appropo here) Methodism. I think this might be "template overkill"; not every subject under the sun needs a template, and I say this as a committed Arminian. KHM03 21:17, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
- I thought about that...part of my thinking was that there's a lot of new information that ties together really well - particularly doctrinal articles - and having that type of navigational aid could help. I think it would be particularly helpful in the respective daughter articles, not the main article.
- Since the main article has links to everything anyways, it's no big deal to me if we leave the template off of that one. I do think we should keep it for most of the other articles mentioned...at least at this point. David Schroder 21:53, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "Objections to the Doctrine" section had these comments in-paragraph
Someone left comments in the article itself. They've been moved here:
- The call of salvation can be genuinely made universally - to all
COMMENT: Wouldn't this only be the case for Calvinists assuming all are predestined?
- Jesus paid the penalty only for those who have faith in Him
COMMENT: It seems that is the Calvinist view, not the Arminian, so how is this a point of agreement?
- Jesus' death was a substitutionary atonement only for those who accept Him
COMMENT: Also the Calvinist view- please clarify why this is listed under points of agreement.
Can anyone help re-write these, if needed?
