***Whether or not your analysis of "neshama" is correct what you have failed to take into account is how the "neshama" was corrupted by the fall.***

Ah, but that is a point our non-Calvinist friends seem reluctant to answer. I think they rightly know that it is a line in the sand between Biblical truth and error. So, they are always reluctant to address it.
