The brand of theology I grew up in was pretty brutal. Why did God make hell, and people who were gonna go to hell? We believed in predestination, so He *knew* he was making ppl who He was actively sending to hell. Why?

also ok before yall shit on Calvinism, it *is* brutal but also the strength is it resolves a lot of philosophical confusions present in other denominations. Other Christian beliefs sacrifice consistency/logic for more 'goodness'; Calvinists are the autists

For a bit more Calvinism I forgot to explain: yes, you and every human born is inherently sinful and deserving of hell from the moment of conception. You personally did nothing to warrant it, it's just a deep, intractable part of your nature.

Yes, this means that babies go to hell, in the same way adults do. This is a facet of covenant theology, which views human/God interactions as bound by covenants; basically programming in conditions into the 'way things work', which are modifiable

Calvinism is people trying way to hard to understand aspects of God that he repeatedly insists are beyond our comprehension.

I feel like if you read the Bible, the calvinists might actually have the correct interpretation. Literally almost every page has some reference to predestination etc. surprised there aren’t more westboro Baptists tbh…

I mean if you're gonna be an accurate Christian, imo Calvinism is the way to go
