You are the first Christian I have ever encountered who has contended that, to be a Christian, one needs "great intelligence". But to be fair, having repeated the claim after being asked about it, you seem to have simply blurted out a bit of inarticulate nonsense. Surely you are going to walk this one back a bit and retract your claim about the need for "great intelligence".
Christ said that in order to enter the kingdom one must first embrace him with child like faith.

This is nothing new FMF.

Seven other things are needed -

Christ, Christ, Christ.
And then ---- Christ.

At this point one definitely then needs ---- CHRIST.
In addition to this - Christ is needed.

Last but by no means least one definitely should have Jesus Christ !

I'm reassured sir to see Christians can count.

You addressed this post to atheists, right? While I'm sure there are atheists who believe that there was a real life person at one time who the character of JC was based on, none of them believe he was the son of god, let alone god himself.

How are you going to tackle this problem?

sonship has said in order to enter the kingdom one must have "great intelligence" and other things besides. In fact, I think he might have misstated what he believes about the need for "great intelligence" but he is too vain to admit it and clarify. He talked about "Satan" and "The Devil" instead.

Vain FMF ?

You're the one who seems be wanting everyone to see how cleverly you can misrepresent people's words.

I don't try to lay traps for people.
You know that I have never announced that "great intelligence" is a requirement to receive Christ. Nor is lesser intelligence a requirement to contact Christ.

Yes, I mentioned Satan's exploitation of God's words.
And what did you do? Looks like you went off to start a new thread on, probably, the worst things preachers have or can do - the proselytizing card played up.

You munipulated my sentence with a facade of objectivity.

Are you admitting that you misstated what you actually meant (and then repeated it) or is your vanity preventing you from doing so? You are framing your inarticulate error and your clumsy pride as an attack on you. Three posters commented on it and you're STILL playing the victim card.

I notice you haven't had the courage to address the moral ramifications of your torture-is-"perfect-morality" ideology on that other thread.

Not necessarily at all did I address it to atheists.

That's right.
In the final analysis what you believe will be most important.

If you read through Luke and John for example, bravely, can you imagine how and why someone/s would come up with such a fictional character as Jesus ?

See? A theist says so.

Can you be intellectually brilliant and wrong ?
Even Grandmasters have said I didn't see that.

I can't see it all, and what I do see I usually see too late. 😉
