Jeff Foxworthy (or someone impersonating him) filled in for Brother Slawson today at Tominthebox News Network and offered some questions to help readers figure out if they're Calvinists. Apparently, I'm a good candidate.
[I]f sitting in a tub full of scissors sounds more appealing to you than listening to a Sunday School class share their personal gut feelings about a Bible verse, you are a good candidate.
Here are some others I scored high on.
If you have adjusted the default passage setting at www.biblegateway.org from “NIV” to “ESV”… you might be a Calvinist.
If your preacher says to turn to Obadiah and you do not use the index, or
If you think a 50-minute sermon is too short, or
If you’ve ever heard a wave of groans sweep through Sunday School when you refer to Romans 9,
…you just might be a Calvinist.
And then there’s this one:
If you have ever purposefully sung a different word in a hymn to conform to scripture,… you might be a Calvinist.

Well, I scored pretty high on that test.
Calvinist Anglican?! The Anglican Way Anglican would never say that… only transplants bringing their protestant baggage with them
alan, Have you discussed that with J.I. Packer?
Now would the PacMan or the StatMan agree that the classical Anglican Way is a synthesis of biblical, patristic, historic, catholic & an evangelical form of Christianity which dates from early Roman times in Britain and later renewed & reformed in the Reformation? Hooker’s (especially) writings for example do not indicate that he was a disciple of Calvin or a graduate of Copper Ridge Reformed Seminary
He did put some distance between continental Europe’s Calvinism & the English form of the faith…
