If I were a Calvinist, I’d live a life of sin if and only if I would two-box on Newcomb’s Problem.
I disagree. In Newcomb’s problem the superintelligence’s decision is conditional on your future actions whereas in the calvinist doctrine this isn’t the case.
This is true. According to Calvinism, election is explicitly stated to be “unconditional.” Election that is conditional on future knowledge of your actions is not Calvinism, but is closer to its theological opposite, Arminianism.
