“You have a blind mechanical determinism on the one hand, and freewill, which is nothing but chance, on the other hand; and both are untenable conceptions, impossible conceptions. But if you say that causality is first of all theological and personal, not mechanical, that it is total, always present, always interacting between God and man, then you can affirm both predestination and human responsibility, because it is not a mechanical thing; it is a vital, a living fact.”

— R. J. Rushdoony
