I don't like this word. It is preternatural. Sounds like "premie". There must be a good, sharp Anglo-Saxon word which could fill in for "prevenient" in your sentence. I, however, am at a loss. I can think of many strings of two words or more which do it but not one. Any suggestions?
how about precursor? like that any better? will terming them dissenters be a precursor to placing them in re-ed camps?
It’s an adjective, Brugman. Something must follow the word to justify the use of it.
