I can discuss the weaknesses of Arminianism and have on many occasions. The first I'll mention is the weak statement on "perseverance of the saints."

Now you give me one about calvinism.

Hmmmm, that in the entire Institutes of the Christian Religion, Calvin only dedicates a handful of pages to what we refer to as "Calvinism." (That being the whole TULIP thing, even though he didn't coin that helpful pneumonic) The rest of the 80 chapters and 4 volumes are brilliant, but we tend as Calvinists to ignore them.
