Its a discredit to anyone when they must stoop to ad hominem attacks to try to win a debate. I've said this to my fellow Calvinists, and I'll say it to the Arminians. Isnt there an old joke that the first side to compare the other to the Nazis is losing the argument?

Argue the logic and the scripture, if you can. "Fight like a man, Scriptures in hand," to quote a popular Christian ska-rap group.

If you cannot rebut the arguments, then dont shout louder or more shrilly. Re-evaluate your positions. You could be wrong. I know I was, when I locked horns with the_doc.

It was just a litle good natured gossip between friends..but I do think if they are calling us nazis when we are not even posting..they are doing it for what ever stray lurker comes by... Hardly godly

Lighten up! It was a poorly chosen analogy that is all! Xzins was not equating anyone with the Nazi's. I think there might be too much hyper-sensitivity going on here.
