Total Depravity, Limited Atonement, and Sociopathy...


Posts: 1892

My current endeavors have me studying deep into the doctrine of Calvinistic Theology.  As a Christian perspective of philosophy I find more validity in the Calvinist way of thinking than others... after you throw-out the basic circular argument.  What I find most interesting is the thought of total depravity of human kind with limited atonement found through G-d's grace.  This means there are only a few "elect" which are chosen as His people to enter into His kingdom for His glory. All other's are destined to perish, die, and go to hell... but, they are created to do so in order for His "elect" to see the greater glory and adhere to His calling.  How can a just and loving God create souls just to be destroyed?  And what would these tainted souls look like?

Enter, sociopathy/psychopathy... God created everything to include evil and it is the sociopath/psychopath who is G-d's "Hand of Wrath".  All for His Glory. 

Just a thought...

Through making life without him hell, life with him will feel like heaven.

The christian perspective is a total lie, wake up and shake off the brain washing from your youth.

And you could be an idiot if you dismiss the possibilities...

The major problem with religion is religion... man gets caught up in all his manmade rules his great grand fathers used to stay the course of goodness and righteousness and forgets what the religion was for... getting to know the "unknowable"... G-d.  Why know G-d?  Why not ask where you came from and to where you are going?  Why not indeed...

The philosophy behind the Judeo Christian doctrine is sound and offers explanations to our existence that science is just now catching up to.  What science?  All.  To include sociology and psychology... the Bible is basically the handbook to ensure cultural survivability in primitive circumstances (sociology), and does anyone feel like arguing the "power of positive thought"/prayer? (psychology)...

So, the Bible says All man is fallen and depraved since Adam...

Ecclesiastes 7:29 - “See, this alone I found, that God made man upright, but they have sought out many schemes.”

And keeping with this doctrinal philosophy, G-d created everything to include evil...

John 1:3 - "All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made."

My position is that if G-d needs "evil" to display the glory of His "goodness", then psychopathy explains the soulless demons needed to do G-d's bidding of wrath. 

Does this hurt your head, blanc?

Is God a dirty word to you, Virus? The way you keep spelling it G-d, kind of reminds me of how Luna could never bring herself to spell the word sex. Lol

No, just keeping with a little tradition... but I see where you might get the idea.  God is G-d is He is Am I, I Am... ME.

All is not lost, my good man.

I was going to wait till I have more time to participate in this brilliant little thought experiment.

But damn it's a good one. I'm surprised nobody else recognized it when it was first posted.

 

I think that what they've missed are the intricacies of Calvinist beliefs in Predetermination.

Think about it, people. Imagine the possibilities. Treat it like a rockin SF show about time travel or smthg.

Duh.

 

God made sociopaths On. Purpose.

To toughen up all the good little Xtian lambies for the coming apocalypse.

 

 

What does that statement mean to you?
