I'm looking for an old 4chan greentext listing out the pros and cons of Nick Land, from what I remember:
Pros
>anti-Communist
>reinvented Calvinism
Cons
>everyone is damned to Hell
On Limited Atonement.
Christ's suffering and death would be sufficient for the whole world, but only the Elect does Christ die for (as otherwise his death would be in vain). As such, the Elect's suffering is recognized by Christ and they die with him on their cross.
@patallax Nice, but I have 2 questions:
1. What is zero standing in for in this calculation?
2. Are you treating the results of angels as if they were Lemurs themselves?
@Be_Like_JChrist Calvinism does not entail God hunts anyone down, God did not make a blank slate which he then chose to be elect or reprobate over time. Whether we are Elect or not is written from the foundations of the world. Irresistible grace is just that which has been decided in eternity.
Original Sin is not adequately described as the first cause behind manifest transgressions, but rather as the endlessly unjust effect of Being. We are ontologically fallen, which is what Original Sin, considered synonymous with Total Depravity, already implies.
@AeonBaudrillard Out of all Crypto-Catholic claims, "forbidden fruit was sex", is the most kitsch and redundant. Wasn't sex already present (or at least allowed) in Eden when God told A&E to "go forth and multiply"? Not that I'm saying sex isn't clearly evil, it's just they never were innocent.
