If I may, let me mess this up more for you. What about those in 12 Step programs where they seek to have a relationship with "the God of their understanding"?

Are we talking about the chance that a member of a given religion / belief system /ideology / lack of belief system gets into heaven or the chance that a given belief system is right and therefore every member gets into heaven?
I assume the former as atheists being right could not really get them into heaven could it?
So you are saying that out of every 1000 satanists, God lets 51 into heaven? I guess that the only way to punish and satanist (who clearly wants to get to hell), is to put in him heaven.
But then we really should have distinguished between the Satanists who are theists that pray to Satan and the Satanists who are Atheists that use Satan to make Christians uncomfortable.

Originally posted by josephw God always receives children into heaven. What kind of a guy do you think He is?
Old testament god as depicted in the bible is clearly a psychopath. Wiping out cities and encouraging the men of Israel to take women and female children as plunder of war are the actions of a criminal lunatic by modern standards. I hope this clarifies what I think of Yahweh, his apologist Christ and his sheep followers.
So a child can be an absolute terrorist and still get into heaven because his age is (X-1) + (354 days)? Whereas the 'good' boy who reached the age of X, but never accepted Christ will be denied by the bouncer angels?

It only clarifies your ignorance.[/b]
Thanks for that christian. So I take it you condone all the actions of old testament angry god (Yahweh)? He really does sound like a blood thirsty lunatic. What sort of god is this anyway? So angry with the world and the people he allegedly created and then, to calm himself down, demanded the blood of his own son (who was also himself..) to buy off your own wrath against your pets? It is absurd and glad I don't waste too much time on it except for comic value. You couldn't make it up or actually you could and we did.
