How am I trapped by fatalistic, divine foreknowledge?
I believe Coercion negates responsibility. I believe people sin willfully. I believe it is in their nature to sin and yet their desire can be to overcome that sinful nature. I don't see any of that as contradictory, but I'm open to refutation.
Oh, please, that disgrace guilt tripping con game of sin.
The only entity that ever sinned by Christian definition is one that never existed - the Christian god.
Sin is god, god is sin, there is no other sin.
