Rather than 'admit' anything (which can give the impression he is reluctantly confessing), Rishmawy says, indeed, it would be rather crass to immediately approach [the grieving father] in such a manner. He then goes on to say that it 'would be equally morally cretinous and shamefully cruel to say to that same father, "Well, sadly, that's life in a world with the libertarian free will requisite for moral responsibility..."' and goes on to say that 'any position stated baldly and unflinchingly can seem trite in the face of catastrophe.'Dannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03954530962872661952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-80809394041705421022018-03-28T19:53:14.196-04:002018-03-28T19:53:14.196-04:00Don't be silly.

You insinuated that according to Calvinism, unlike Arminianism, God kills children in tsunamis, but Calvinists lack the candor to tell that to the bereaved. stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16547070544928321788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-48445236093574731492018-03-28T16:45:43.204-04:002018-03-28T16:45:43.204-04:00Please explain what you found hostile to Rishmawy ...Please explain what you found hostile to Rishmawy in my comment.K.W.

Naturally you did..."i) Didn’t say that."<br /><br />Naturally you didn't say that since that would expose the inanity of your comment about Rishmawy.<br /><br />"ii) Causation doesn’t equal intent"<br /><br />So God doesn't intend what he causes? Is the Arminian God accident-prone? I hope he has insurance. <br /><br />"iii) Somebody hasn’t read our requirements for membership, and just presumed it must be just as narrow as the door to your Calvinist club."<br /><br />More like Leslie is tone-deaf to irony. stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16547070544928321788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-27543182469802971652018-03-27T12:42:16.288-04:002018-03-27T12:42:16.288-04:00https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_chari...https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_charityfinneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12716499100306513674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-89727689336207583882018-03-27T12:05:35.177-04:002018-03-27T12:05:35.177-04:00i) Didn’t say that.
