Everyone gets a choice: Either understand the Bible from the world's view; or understand the World from the Bible's view.

False dichotomy. There are many other options. For example one might not have heard of the Bible at all. What conclusions would such an individual come to about matters such as evolution and the age of the earth, do you think? Would God refuse salvation to an individual who failed to draw conclusions that matched those in the Bible?

Then he wouldn't have an opinion; would he?

Romans 2
11. For God does not show favoritism.
12. All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law.
13. For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God's sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous.

This help?
