College Pranks

After an invigorating discussion about my previous post I aimed to bring some humor back into the mix here @ The CrazyScotsman.

This video is from a group who attends the University of Michigan. In my honest opinion and I'm one who is capable of some pretty elaborate pranks. This is by far the most original way to interrupt Lecture class

"Just a spoonful of Calvinism makes the medicine go down"

Here in recent days the topics of John Calvin and Martin Luther have come up and have been discussed. Martin Luther I always enjoyed to discussing because he is essentially the father of the protestant stream of of faith. I always shyed away from John Calvin and his theories because the first thing you think about when his name comes up is the idea of predestination; and how some are chosen to spend eternity in heaven and then others are destined to go the hell.

Upon further study I find myself to be a 3 point Calvinist of which is there is a possibility of being a 5 point Calvinist. I believe that in total depravity that man cannot save himself. I believe in unconditional election in that going to be with God is not based on foreseen virtue, merit, or faith but on God's mercy alone. Finally I believe in perserverance of the saints simply put once saved you can't lose your salvation regardless of what may happen.

It's funny how assumptions about a controversial theory can shape or thinking/attitude. This post has along links using the gi-normous resource of Wikipedia. There's alot here to be explored.

I can really feel the pressure, we starting to near the end of the first third of semester and we all know what that means.....Tests,exams.....ugh!! My prayer request would be that God grant me the ability to be a better manager of my time.

In the News

Well totally un-expected to this blogger was the newsheadline that The Croc Hunter had died due to an accident involving a Stingray. In all the times I watched his show I always had feeling that he would meet his maker involving getting too close to one of those dangerous animals. He was a man who loved what he did and live every minute to the fullest. He will be missed by many. My prayers and thoughts go out to his wife and his two young children.

On a lighter note....We saw the University of Tennessee(Go Vols!!!!) hit the ground running this season taking the Golden Bears of California to task 35-18. This due in part to the return of this man. I was able to take in the game this past weekend from the comforts of home that being Knoxville, TN due part to the labor-day weekend.


With the weekend being over it will be back to hitting the books. I start my job this week as well which is going to be challenge for me before I even start. I'm worried about being able to work enough to pay for my expenses and having enough time left over to study and succeed in school.
