Title: A waste of time
Product review: As one who has been an arminian and who is now a calvinist, I read this book with much interest. Truth is THE important issue. Not labels. The very size of the book lead me to think that the author had possibly done his homework. What I found amazed me. The author continually misrepresented the true positions of calvinism and quoted many sources that were inferior. He never fully delt with the arguments brought out in Jonathan Edwards' "Freedom of the Will" and many times quoted an author for just a sentence or two and completely took the quote out of context. Also, he would quote a bible verse and not even discuss the calvinist's interpetation. He seems to have a problem with God being soverign even though he states that he believes in the soverignty of God. He also attributes some things to mere "chance". Even most arminian scholars disagree with that. Overall, this book does little for the thinking arminian to further his cause.
