monks...calvinists...mdivs

I read a good (long) article from your friendly internet monk today.

Take, for instance, the seminary student who discovers that one theological system has all the answers he’ll ever need. All he needs is to buy the books, go to the conferences and check the websites. In more than a few cases, it would be best if he simply stopped his education and went home until he’s willing something to learn again. While he’s certain that he’s right, and he’s correcting his professors and working to overthrow any teacher who doesn’t subscribe to his hobby horse theological system, he’s useless as a student and probably off balance as a human being. The wise and the know-it-alls have no reason to learn from those who can’t/won’t/don’t see the light. (Yes, that’s me in the corner….losing my religion…)

This is why I'm worried about going to RTS Atlanta. I'm down with Calvinists I guess. Humble ones who've grasped that human minds will NEVER have God completely figured out. No matter how many points you have.

I don't want to learn from somebody who has it all figured out. At least not 52 somebodies who've all bought into the same thing. I like a lot about the school...they take their stuff seriously with entrance exams and remedial classes. I want that. I also want to be challenged to think instead of pressured to buy into a system.

I need some MDiv/Mtheo advice... and a scholarship.
