Dude, Tim I’m right with you buddy. This was such a relatable conversation. I am so grateful for your conviction to preserving the remnant of evangelical thought that hasn’t been seduced by Eric’s dad. It’s been so unreal seeing a majority of American Christianity trade their witness for power and let a misanthrope mutate the gospel of service, humility and selflessness, with a shallow doctrine of hate and perversion. Thank you and keep up the good work.
That title triggered me. I understand that calvinism is strongly deterministic. Which leads to the question: is reality governed by determinism only or are there true random processes? Or in other ways: Does god know the future but is unable to change anything about it, or has god to wait for the dices to fall? Or to ask in another way: is gods mind determined or random? Why don't we use a dice to answer these questions? Why do we rather use our narcissism to guess the true answer?
As far as I can tell, Calvinism is the only theological position that seeks to actually grant God the omniscience, omnipresence, and omnipotence that's traditionally associated with him. It cares very little for the fallen sinner (I actually end up considering it pretty anti-human, but 🤷🏼♂️), and it doesn't fall into the "love and peace and sunshine and rainbows" trap contemporary belief structures seem to be falling prey to.
