thats a major side stepping maneuver,and still doesnt explain why someone that's never heard the gospels and accepted jesus christ as their lord and savior isnt getting into (what i call this fictional) heaven.

i truly expected more people to put "perhaps / don't know" because, honestly, who is in a position to assert that they know what can happen in the mind of god? the debate about whether there even is a god is perpetual; i wouldn't feel even less comfortable trying to say what god is capable of doing.

The Christian god, by definition can not make a mistake and would have no need to change his mind. By default anything that looked like a change of heart would only be for your benefit, as he had always planned to do that anyways.

I've always been more fond a the ancient Greek Gods behaving more like spoiled children, I think in the end it is a better explanation of the world even if believing in them is akin to Ptolemaic astronomy.

Wait a minute... SCIENTIFICALLY accurate? Please tell me how anything in the Bible has been "scientifically" proven, and by whom.

I like how now people are using 'scientifically proven' as a basis for the Bible's accuracy, but when anything that contradicts the Bible is scientifically proven it's just heathen mumbo jumbo.

I think that religion has a great deal to learn from science, but I also feel that a creator of the universe is far more powerful and comprehensive that I can ever imagine. Trying to use my intellect to prove or disprove the validity of faith or religion is child-like. I wish people would have the humilty to admit the vast universe of things we don't understand, and thus concentrate solely on what the universe means to themselves, and nothing more. If we ourselve as humans make mistakes, it's laughable (and incredibly vain) that we debate whether God make mistakes.
