Talk:Traducianism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have Augustus Strong's Systematic, and while I haven't read through the entire thing I don't think that he counts as "reformed". He denies limited atonement.

[edit] Grammar error

In the pararaph titled "Biblical support", the sentence beginning "there was never any doubt" is ungrammatical. Someone who knows what the correct meaning is, please fix. Zargulon 06:56, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

The statement is in passive voice, too, and should not be. CyberAnth 03:48, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Technically, that's not the passive voice (which would be something like "The doctrine of the divine creation of Adam's soul was held by all of the Church Fathers"). In any case, I made some changes to make that section flow a little more smoothly. --Flex 17:57, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Needs a "Criticisms" section

This article needs more to contrast its subject with "creationism" (immediate divine creation) and have a section of criticisms that creationism adherents level at traducianism. This is more to help one better understand traducianism through contrastive opposition than bias issues. Interesting article otherwise, however. CyberAnth 03:04, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. --Flex 17:57, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

I'd like to suggest removing the fifth point under Main Arguments for Traducianism ("souls are already present in the loins") because the whole argument behind this point is based on an equivication of the word "souls."--Gesundheit 01:01, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
