which has been pointed out to you in this thread.

????

But, you are correct.

Saved is superior to lost.

It is given unto every man at least once to be enlightened by God. That is then an easy road to salvation.

The only question is "Will they resist and be unnecessarily lost?"

But it's already known what you will do. We're just waiting to see how it works out.

What does any of that have to do with science or TTOE? This is the second time I have asked.

We all agree, YOU are better than your fellow man. But what does that have to do with the sunject at hand?

You beg the question. "Saved" via your interpretation? Who knows how many people save themselves as non-believers. You offer only one prescription. Reality is that there are many paths. None lead to eternal bliss, because we are mortal.

"Enlightened by God"? You merely repeat the claim of every other church group seeking government support via tax benefits or using the government to promote faith-based views. There are so many claims to "know God's truth", and so many men getting rich on appeals to the faithful to promote 'faith agendas', and so many claims as to which god is true. And a lot of hypocrisy.

Since you were previously a Chaplin in the US Military, you swore an oath to uphold the Constitution. Your oath is to defend Art VI and the First Amendment. Your oath was not to defend the Bible.
