No wonder Mormonism has sucked you in ...
"If a person can’t exercise saving faith in Christ after this life, then an infant who dies is damned. A mentally retarded person is damned. A good person who never hears of Christ is damned." You really should ask God to forgive you for trying that deceit, that blatant mischaracterization.

God measures the heart of man (or woman). When the Gospel is heard by someone, if they reject that Gospel of God's Grace in Christ and die in that state they are damned by their own actions. Now, an unborn baby, a little child, a man who lived never hearing the Grace of God in Christ, all are judged differently than the way I, you, or Ghandi is judged. You ought to know that and not try to use the apparent confusion to sow doubt over God's Mercy and Justice. You're getting irrational, Mormon. Try again, and this time remember that God's Grace is offered now, not after all that you can do else you will be defeated by the evil one, for sure!

~”God measures the heart of man (or woman).”~

Ah, good! So a person -doesn’t- have to accept the Gospel of Jesus Christ in this life in order to be saved. He or she simply needs to have a heart that God judges worthy. God will judge a person in the context of factors in their life.

You and I agree, after all. You may want to check in with P-Marlowe, though; he was telling me something very different. Perhaps you can instruct him somewhat, because he seems to be under the impression that God is not merciful, kind, or just. It might also be the case that he worships a different Jesus than you and I do.
