"If there is to be any philosophical apologetics for Arminianism, it must be of the sort that (Bishop) Butler furnishes. Arminianism will not allow that "whatsoever comes to pass" comes to pass in accord with the counsel of God. Philosophically expressed, this means that Arminianism begins with "brute facts" and with the human mind as the final interpreter of those facts. God is excluded from the outset. This being the case, Arminianism can turn only to some form of non-theistic reasoning...Arminianism does not ask unbelievers to accept the doctrine of a sovereign or absolute God. A finite God is really all that it asks men to accept. And with a finite God goes a conception of man as having original powers next to God, and a conception of the sinner as able to judge of good and evil without the necessity of regeneration."
