Not My Faultism?

Filed under Personal on Monday, February 20th, 2006 @ 10:43am by Christen

I really get irritated by people who don’t take resonsibility for their lives. If you talk to me much, you probably know that. It drives me nuts to see people who just meander through life, wondering why it treats them the way it does, instead of taking it by the reins and living life on purpose.
It has recently occured to me, though, that calvinism may really be a way for people to do this, and claim they are backed by the Scriptures in this way of going about life.

Could calvinism really just be an excuse to abandon personal responsibility?

I consider myself to be somewhat* of a calvinist, so this occurance bothers me a bit. The only thing more fun than defending my position, though, is rethinking it. =)

*I know, accepting SOME of the five points, but not all of them is considered illogical by most, but that is an issue for another post.
