I think many people expected Dr. Geisler to "parrot" what they already believed. When he didn't, they were upset. Geisler's book is an excellent text that shows various perspectives that Christians may have on these issues, and he clearly reveals his own position. This text is an important contribution to the overall discussion of Calvinism vs. Arminianism. Dr. Geisler is an able philosopher and theologian. Don't read this text looking to find your own position reflected so you can feel good about yourself. Read this book as student of the ongoing discussion of this issue, and learn from it.
