Is There Something I'm Missing?

Open theism is a way of understanding god's sovereignty in which there is still a freedom in creation. In direct opposition to somewhat like a john mc arthor or a calvinist who would say, no, every detail is prescribed by god. Part of the difficulty here is that a lot of our discussions still take place in the wake ofa seventeenth and eighteenth century deism. And i think that determinist thing has come into american life particularly in a way which has become unhelpful and rationalized. But i'm glad you picked up on that, because i was hinting that maybe you might go that way too.
