If their destinies were settled by actual choices,
What is so special about you that you made the right choice?
What you are implying, is that God choose you because you have righteousness (righteous choice) of your own.

My point is that Calvinism is not biblical despite their claims to be so.
So says the man that, can tell God what God's rights are. So says the man that, tells God what God meant to say.
edited to add:
Dog, are you Calvinistic or not?
Don't worry about me, I'll be OK. When I stand before God, I'll be relying totally on Christ's righteousness and none of my own.
You on the other hand have your own righteous choice to impress God with. Be sure to tell him how wonderful you are, that you made such a choice and how you are so much better than those who didn't. I'm sure you'll be promoted to a much higher place in heaven, because of your righteous choice.
I'll probably just barely make it (smelling of smoke), with only the righteousness of Christ.

Calvinism vs Arminianism vs Open Theism is a peripheral issue. Rest assured, dog, that my righteousness is as filthy rags. His grace and righteousness alone is the basis for my salvation. The Calvinistic mistake is to think that responsive faith (to the conviction/convincing of the Spirit vs causation/coercion) is a work. Calvinism can be a divisive issue in Christianity, but if we both affirm the Deity and resurrection of Christ, we can share the same hope. Design and others who do not have the essentials correct should stay out of our in-house disputes.
So, dog, are you a Calvinist (what are you afraid of or hiding?), but more importantly, are you a Christian as to the Deity of Christ (is Jesus Almighty God or not)?

Greetings,
The Hebrew scriptures robbed most of their law, medical practices and and law making abilities from the even older Summerians, how's that for plagiarism for you
and Christians carried on that tradition!!
