It took me until 3rd grade to read at a high school senior level, but that didn't make me incapable of faith.

How can you accept something as true based on a guess?doen't you ever wonder what your faith would be if you were born in Saudi Arabia or India? Muslims and Hindus are just as sure of their religions. You can't all be right.

It's actually not a guess. When one has a personal encounter with the Creator of the universe there's no guess work about it. Nonetheless, this is something I could never prove to you and, even if I could, you still would not believe it. The Bible says as such in Luke 16:19-31 if you're interested. Even if someone were to rise from the dead, there are those who would not believe it.

The thought crossed my mind. Thank God I was born in the US.

Absolutely correct. Someone is wrong. In fact, the majority of humanity is wrong. Wide is the path to destruction and many find it, but narrow is the gate to salvation and few enter through it.
