Subject: (urth) The pelagic argosy

While rereading Lem, I was suddenly caught by "no more than any genuine 
heresy such as the Manichaean or the Pelagian."  And yes, the Pelagians
"emphasize human free will as the decisive element in human
perfectibility and minimize or deny the need for divine grace and
redemption".  Well, it *might* be a coincidence.
