(I think that we have MANY more thoughts on these subjects than flows out to our fingertips... ;^)
Also -- I clearly stated, at least twice, that I believe that the Bible does clearly teach eternal punishment in the Lake of Fire for all unbelievers. I do not believe there is any such place -- but I do see that the Bible does say there is.
Well; it wasn't clear to me until you have so plainly stated it now.
What I can't understand is this:
If you say that the Bible is NOT divinely inspired; then it HAS to be written by men, as they saw fit.
Do I have this assumption right?
If so, why do you give it any kind of 'respect' at all?

LOL! Check post #1198. I said it at least three times in that one message.
