I don’t think the blogger wrote “8 reasons for Calvinist to go see the movie”. I think he said Catholic and was expressing his views [personal]. I probably will not see the movie as I tend to not go to movies in general.
Now as to whether Alex goes to see Noah or not, well I guess that has been Predestined positively or negatively.
Because as we all "know," only Calvinists believe the events of Genesis 1-11 actually happened. After all, higher criticism is one of those Catholic distinctives, just like the rosary! Though one wonders why this Catholic distinctive didn't exist until it was invented by radical Protestants in late nineteenth century Germany.
You've never seen a Seder `Olam poster on the wall of a yeshivah, have you?
Zionist:
Are you Alex? and are you a Calvinist?
Let’s assume you are not Alex and not Calvinist, the Rosary is a prayer tradition and is distinctively Catholic and yet nobody has to ever pray the Catholic and one is still a Catholic. Higher critical biblical scholarship is a 19th century German Protestant movement, on that point you are correct. Yes, Higher Criticism has been used in Catholic circles since Pope Pius Apostolic letter allowing Catholic biblical scholars to use that “Methodology”. I have, as I have said here before, problems with the extensive use of that methodology and think many of its adherents are dissenters and push unorthodox doctrines. Fr. Hans Kung is perhaps one of the foremost theologians who embraced the higher critical method, as did Americans like Fr. Charles Curran, and the New Jerome Biblical Commentary, edited by Fr. Raymond Brown, uses it extensively.
