I'm not necessarily talking about where it misrepresents OV, but where you disagree with a point it makes? On a first reading, I found myself agreeing with most of it.
I also just noticed this post from Doctor Boyd:
quote: Experience, reason, science and Scripture all demonstrate that all freedom is within parameters. Where the parameters end and freedom begins we have no clue. But it would not disturb the Open View in the least if it could be proven that, at this moment right now, with regard to this decision right now, 99.5% of the total situation was determined, and .5% up to you. Indeed, if I HAD to guess, based on my understanding of such things as a) genetic influence b) social influence c) spiritual influence d) the influence of character from previous decisions e) necessary conditions of physical existence, etc. I would guess that this estimation of the influence distribution is probably close to correct, most of the time.
