So they really don’t need Jesus? Hmmmm

What do you mean by "Hmmmm?"

Consider the following scenario:

CynicalBear is born not some time in the 1900's in the United States (I assume) with access to bibles and preachers and internet forums and what have you.

Rather, he is born CynicalRhinoTusk in a small jungle village in Africa in say, 1077 AD. Will you ever hear the word of God or be contacted by a clergyman of any type? Doubtful. So you will you ever be a Christian? Not likely.

So what happens to CynicalRhinoTusk? After all, he has never known Jesus, at least not in the conventional sense.

Hmmm...
