Calvinist_Dark_Lord: Maybe (s)he just lurked, lots of people do you know? Perhaps, it is experimental, because it seems to me that you are attempting to prove his point, Neener Boy.

Yes, no one really knows how long anyone has watched before posting. And, yes, I'd say that it is proving his point. Almost prophetic.

BTW, perhaps you might wish to comment on the portion of the book I have highlighted. It does seem to me that some of the Calvinist cites are not quite contextually fair, but it will take me a fair amount of time to work through all of the source citations.

It would be the least of the books problems, which is really frustrating. I do have some questions to the Calvinists in this area, but I am finding it nearly impossible to find a well written argument that demonstrates in what way Calvinism makes God the author of sin.

Your brother,
Christian.

For starters, it does not appear that the Author defined his terms adequately for the purpose of proper discussion. Secondarily, on the discourse about Supralapsarians, it is my observation that Hodge (if the reference is to Charles Hodge) was not quoted in it's fullness.

i strongly recommend viewing Charles Hodge's criticism of the Supralapsarian position for a fuller exposition of his objections. You would find it in Volume II of his Systematic Theology.
