An interesting answer by the unbeliever. Of course there's room to quibble, but his argument is mainly aimed against a typical free-will notion that has no connection to causality, and is free-floating.

Of course, his pot-shot at "theism-in-general" and his rejection of a cosmic Judge does not affect the Calvinist position.

But I wonder how he would deal with the chapter "Of Free Will" in the WCF, assuming he ever came to deal with it?
