FYI, The link to the treatise on predestination leads to an unformatted page of text. I look forward to reading it.


Thanks for bringing that to my attention, Bryce. The link should work now. The problem was that it did not have the .doc extension on the end. If you changed that, even on the previously linked file, it works.


Really interesting stuff Alex, I wish I had been reading the stuff you are when I was a teen. I was wondering about stuff you wrote about in your papers (and maybe you've gotten feedback on this stuff originally, I don't know)--you argued for the rejection of atheism because of its failure in the categories of experiencing reality, and of logical consistency. But wouldn't you say that in many ways our experience of the issue of the will, and the logic of the calvinist position don't seem consistent? In the sense that we can't get outside our will to observe it objectively and its experience of decision making, and also that the calvinist position of allowing divine sovereignty and human responsibility to both stand at the same time is technically illogical? It just seems to me that with many things in the bible we can't produce an appropriate algorithm for the entire issue in words and so sometimes its odd to reject something because of its lack of logic (like with atheism).


Alex, thank you for fixing the link. After reading your well-written treatise, I decided to link over to it. It thoroughly expresses truth on a subject which is so often misunderstood. Thanks for sharing it.


My mother got to go and hear John Taylor Gatto speak; she really liked him.


Hey Alex!

I don't know if you remember me, but I met you and Brett at the CO National Open tournament last year. I had a question about your article on predestination. Would you say that Jesus only died for those he predestined, or the entire world? Thanks!
