...but then it would invalidate their religious experience and that is troubling. Better to toe the line and not be uncomfortable

I toed the line for my first 21 years, but I felt VERY uncomfortable with that. Maybe that was just God preparing me for my conversion experience. Make sense?

Paul was converted instantly, once it was God’s time. I imagine you were too :-)

Yes it does make sense. I can relate through my own experience. I think of the people I respected and thought highly of who I now realize were off track when it comes to the truth of scripture. I can at least be grateful to them for instilling a need for a savior.
