God's word or human reason?

The issue arose over the question whether future is predestined. Aggie argued that the existence of superluminal movement proves a predestined future since for superluminal particles time runs backwards. In my opinion, the Lorentz transformation prevents superluminal movement, and in our universe the future is not predestined.

Just a little bit of pedantry here.

What Aggie is talking about is not "predestination" but "predetermination".

The future, if it is fixed, is determined by the past, perhaps pre-determined from all eternity. Every event that will ever happen, every choice you will ever make, is preprogrammed into the flux of time.

This is not predestination.

Predestination is God's free choice to bring a person to salvation. It has nothing to do with determining events like next week's stock market results. It is solely focused on the eternal destiny of the elect. Predestination does not require a predetermined world. In fact, IMO predestination, since it is a free and sovereign choice of God, does not fit into a predetermined world. [/pedantry]
