He is trying to avoid the contradiction to his theology
What does "receive the word of the kingdom," mean, Tom? You can't tell me, because the parable doesn't say, therefore, you're left to assume a meaning, and you're assumption is biased toward your systematic.
Much ado about nothing. 🙂

Typical Calvinist 2 step, sadly. No doubt they believe they are protecting a truth which they aren’t.
protecting a man made systematic

It is what the text says unless you ignore the text and context, which those who are wrong typically do.

It means the unregenerate did something Calvinism says they can't
You've not provided any asked for proof, but continue assuming your position is correct. That's arguing in a circle.
You can't prove that, but only assume it on your committment to your systematic.
sorry but that was done already
Luke 8:11–13 (KJV 1900) — 11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. 12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. 13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
