The problem is not the logic (or lack thereof) of the Arminian. The problem is the dichotemy presented.

To Arminians, the sentence "If Christ died for all men, then 1)either all men are then saved or 2)Christ is a failure" presents a false dichotomy. Most of them won't interact with you on this logic because it makes no sense to them.

More accurately, they would say, "If Christ died for all men, then all men have the capability of accepting Christ." Once again, it boils down to whether Christ died to save men or render them savable.
