“Jonathan Edwards, the dear old soul, who, if his doctrine is true, is now in heaven rubbing his holy hands with glee, as he hears the cries of the damned, preached this doctrine; and he said: 'Can the believing husband in heaven be happy with his unbelieving wife in hell? Can the believing father in heaven be happy with his unbelieving children in hell? Can the loving wife in heaven be happy with her unbelieving husband in hell?' And he replies: 'I tell you, yea. Such will be their sense of justice, that it will increase rather than diminish their bliss.' There is no wild beast in the jungles of Africa whose reputation would not be tarnished by the expression of such a doctrine.

These doctrines have been taught in the name of religion, in the name of universal forgiveness, in the name of infinite love and charity.”
― Robert G. Ingersoll, The Liberty Of Man, Woman And Child

“He began with the core principle he had intoned at the dawn of his political career 25 years before: A democratic Calvinist in the Netherlands could not vote Democratic in the United States because that party trays its origins to Thomas Jefferson, who in turn had endorsed the principles of the French Revolution.”

“Kelvinist and Calvinist, schoolgirlishly light-hearted, she stood out in Manhattan like a Welsh miner at a bar mitzvah.”

“A genuine Calvinist's perspective on salvation centers entirely on God. In the eyes of a true Calvinist, human beings have no capacity to approach God, nor can they even recognize their own sin. Salvation is entirely the result of God's work, unaffected by human actions or qualities. In this view, acts such as confession, repentance, believing or going to the altar hold no sway. To the true Calvinist, salvation is a work entirely independent of any human involvement; it is solely the work of God, with no contribution from humanity whatsoever.”
― Angel Ruiz, PULLING OFF THE PETALS: "best way to glorify God is to say no to Calvinism"
