Ignorance from Vox Day.
And while I am as skeptical as any atheist about those whose demono-calvinism interprets every unfortunate or unpleasant event as being the result of evil intervention in their lives – you know what I mean, the sort of individual who requests an exorcism because “I feel a little blue today” and believes the Lego brick he stepped on the night before was personally placed there by the Prince of Hell – there is a very strong stench of sulfur about literally everything related to both Covid and the vaxxes.
Good Lord. This is so messy it’s hard to know where to begin.
First, I don’t know a single Calvinist who has ever requested an exorcism because “I feel a little blue today,” or for any other reason. And Calvinists are neither Roman Catholics nor Pentecostals.
Second, Calvinists don’t interpret every unfortunate or unpleasant event as a result of evil intervention in our lives. In fact, quite the contrary. “Father fortune” and “Lady Luck” are evil notions, and the Holy Scriptures do not countenance notions of causation from unknown sources.
“For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things which have not yet been done, saying, “My purpose will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure.” Isaiah 46:9-10. “We have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to His purpose who works all things after the counsel of His will,” Ephesians 1:11.
To be sure, God does allow His children to suffer for a period of time when they make poor choices, but always to their benefit.
“And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose,” Romans 8:28.
While we agree with him that there is something very wrong with the Vax, he sounds like a high school freshman when trying to write about things theological.
He says, ” … you know what I mean.” No, I don’t know what you mean. Nothing you said makes any sense at all. It’s a mish mash of confusion, ignorance and poor writing. It might be wise for him to steer clear of the more complex issues and focus on things he can understand.
