Calvinists Admit They Don't Actually Understand Calvinism

Shocking Revelation Rocks the Reformed Community

GRAND RAPIDS, MI - In a stunning turn of events, leaders within the Calvinist community have come forward to admit that they, in fact, do not truly understand the theological system they so ardently defend.

"It's true, we don't get it," said Pastor Jeremiah Hardline, a prominent figure in the Reformed world. "If we really grasped the full implications of Calvinism, we'd all be Arminians by now."

The admission came during a closed-door meeting of the International Council of the Truly Reformed, where attendees reportedly spent several hours scratching their heads and murmuring, "Wait, what?"

"The more we tried to explain it, the more confused we got," lamented Dr. Ulysses Van Predestination, Dean of the Institute for Irresistible Grace. "We realized that the only way someone could genuinely understand Calvinism is if they didn't believe in it."

Insiders say the stunning revelation has sent shockwaves through the Reformed community, with many prominent Calvinists now quietly reconsidering their theological positions.

"I'm starting to think maybe we should just go back to being Lutherans," said one attendee, who spoke on condition of anonymity. "At least they seem to have a grasp on what they believe."

At press time, a growing number of Calvinists were seen wandering the streets, muttering, "Totally depraved? More like totally bewildered."

Baptists Cancel Outdoor Service Due to Rain Threat

Baptists Cancel Outdoor Service Due to Rain Threat A local Baptist church has decided to cancel its planned outdoor service this Sunday due to the forecast of rain. The pastor of the church, Rev. Joe Jones, said that he did not want to risk exposing his congregation to the wet weather, which could have dire consequences for their spiritual health. "We believe that baptism is a personal decision that should only be made by those who have professed their faith in Jesus Christ," Jones said. "We do not practice infant baptism, unlike our Presbyterian neighbors, who sprinkle water on their babies as a sign of the covenant." Jones explained that he feared that if his church members got wet from the rain, they might inadvertently become Presbyterians, which would be a tragedy for their souls. "Presbyterians believe in predestination, which means that God has already determined who will be saved and who will be damned," Jones said. "They also have a hierarchy...

To Protect Last Political Allies from Trump, Biden Pardons Pilate, the Sanhedrin

Critics Say Presidential Clemency 2,000 Years Too Late In a shocking twist of historical revisionism, President Biden has issued a last-minute presidential pardon for Pontius Pilate and the Sanhedrin, effectively settling a 2,000-year-old legal dispute. The unprecedented move comes as Biden clears his presidential desk, seemingly determined to resolve theological legal matters that have been pending since the first century. "Sometimes, you've got to wash your hands of ancient history—literally," Biden reportedly quipped, making a clear reference to Pilate's infamous hand-washing gesture. The pardon documents hilariously cite "administrative oversight" and "bureaucratic complications" as primary reasons for the belated legal clemency. Religious scholars and historians are bewildered, with one anonymous theologian remarking, "Well, that's one way to end a presidency—by retroactively solving a crucifixion controversy." The White House pr...
