To avoid this, I also included people living A.D. who have no knowledge of the bible.

One of many possible examples would be a tribesman in the rain forest of some backwoods country who has had the good fortune of never meeting a missionary or Sally Strothers.

I feel stupider for having read that, and my hangover is back.

Vous voulez dire "noblesse oblige"?

(Not really trying to get picky, just trying out that quote unquote thing. Didn't work for me. Must not be doing it right. )

What about the Neanderthals? If by ignorance of Jebus they get into Heaven, do they also gain intelligence? Or is Thag up there still dressed in a fur yoga?

Also Sophie needs some dial a point, dial some clarity, and most importantly, dial a beer.

Remember and take not the history out of context, religion 2000 years ago was a money making business, not a soul saving business.
...and it's not a money making business today?

Heh.

Why would I need to dial some clarity if you understood what dial a point meant.

Thanks for the suggestion. Yeh.

Not any more confused than usual. Except I still haven't figured out how to isolate a quote from a longer text.
