HELL NO, woah I love you.
Utuk can you shut up already? You are serious?
Your thought process here doesn't even make sense:
"None of those are characteristics of Arminianism.
Arminians reject Calvinism."
1 You think none of them have any of those traits? Wow so you know the whole planet huh? Dude, I can speak from experience because I hung out with them all the time and I talk to them all the time, she is right.
2. DUH THEY REJECT CALVINISM, does she sound like she doesn't know that?
3. How does rejecting Calvinism mean they don't have any of those traits lol?
Stop obsessing on your own opinions, being careless when you judge, and being arrogant.

None of those are characteristics of Arminianism.
Arminians reject Calvinism.
Unless, of course, you are talking about actual Arminians, who practice a form of Monophysitism.
what is it ?
no i cant even spell it
wow - prime example of what mental illness does!
No, but thanks for providing me with an easy two points.
No.
They live mostly in Glendale, North Hollywood, and Van Nuys.
OMG! Darth took my question!
But no...I am not...I did however do some project in my trig class that we talked to Armenian people on a forum about math(kind of stupid). They just asked us about our culture in the US and told us all about how they're poor and no one likes them....
I guess the "WHY DOES EVERYONE HATE US" thing doesn't help their case much...it didn't with me.
Very good. I answered no to nearly all of them. Does this mean I am an "Arminian?" Or does if mean that I am not an "Armianian?"
No but thers a shitload of those dudes in Van Nuys. I never heard of them till last year.
