While it may be the view most consistent with a omni... God, I am completely baffled that predeterminism is supposed to work as a religion. Why does it work as a faith, psychologically? What is the incentive, what is the reward, the appeal? Can someone explain that to me?

The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
