I live to plow through voluminous, circular Calvinist tautologies!

Calvinism is so seductive cause it completely absolves the believer from any responsibility for his actions. God wills and commands every single thing that happens and nothing we do can change it.

That IS seductive. Do you have a pamphlet?

Nonsense.

I am still responsible for my actions.

Though my actions fall into God's plan, it isn't like I am a robot doing whatever he commands.

God doesn't command me to sin. I do that myself. I am responsible.
