Nice brief essay there. Your contentions about man's innate predilection to depravity agree with my understanding of the whole of Scripture.
Even so, the Holy Spirit is always constraining evil, to a greater or lesser extent. Woe to those who are left on earth once He stops during the Tribulation after the saints' departure, and to those who choose hell, from which He will be absent.
