" It is true that Open Theists reject the Calvinist belief that God ordains or even “allows” every specific thing that happens for a specific divine reason. Not everything happens “for a divine purpose” in the open view (and many Arminians agree). Far from being an objection to this view, however, Open Theists see this as one advantage of their view. If a person believes every specific thing happens for a specific divine reason, they must accept that every horror in world history—from the raping of children to the gas chambers of Auschwitz to specific individuals going to hell—takes place “for a divine purpose. "
