  1. Awesome! I now have my summer reading list.

  2. Thank you very much for posting these links. I have been a Calvinist for a quarter of a century, but I also try to keep an open mind and study all sides of a question. If I were to be convinced that I was in error from the Bible, I would have to change my position- I just haven’t been convinced that Calvinism is not scriptural. I am looking forward to reading these posts.

    • Thanks James! Please let me know what your thoughts are on what you read, questions, etc.

  3. Hey Max, thanks for the directory for molinism. Most websites will advocate either calvinism or arminianism so it’s good to see your website being one of few that does advocate the doctrine of middle knowledge. There is a request I would like to make in light of the information you have given in this directory; I see that you have a link about how to be a consistant infralapsarian a la molinism. Yet after reading Plantinga’s “supralapsarianism or ‘O Felix Cupa’” I felt (and do believe) that a molinist can be consistant with the supralapsarian view (personally, I think that the supra [given middle knowledge] has an edge over infra in that it can provide a theodicy over why God permitted evil). In any case my request is this; would you be willing to write a summary of how a molinist can be a consistant supra? I myself have written a summary of Plantinga’s article and, if possible, would like to send you it albiet one where it does not quite do justice as I had to skip over some of the more complicated issues regarding possible worlds.

    • I’m glad to be of a good resource for you. I have a friend who is a supralaparian Molinist so I’ll see if he can get a post on that. I anything, it’s certainly a good idea!

  4. Thanks Max! I have a much better understanding of foreknowledge.

  5. ?Hey Max, how do i ask a question in Q and a?

  6. Hello,

    Would you be able to suggest the few leading books on Molinism for me? I haven’t studied the whole Calvinism/Arminianism issue for a long time. My email is: corcor2005@hotmail.com
