@kellyjay saidDo you think newborn babies are Muslims [here where I live] if their parents are Muslims? And I don't mean in the demographic/government bureaucracy sense.
Two different things, what you are taught and what you had a birth. Assuming one
is the same as the other, is just that an assumption.

one who leaped for joy. What we start off with and how we end up are two
different things. Being born into a Muslim family doesn't mean that is what you
will be in the end any more than being born into a Christian family means that will
be where you end up either. Individuals, will make individual choices that will take
them where they are going.
I've posted here the testimony of a Muslim who found Christ, and I'm sure we
all could post testimonies of those who turned into Atheist, Muslim, or something
else all of which proves my point.
@kellyjay saidSo? Do babies born down my street have religious affiliations or do they have no religious affiliations when they are born?

@fmf saidKnowing God as I pointed out was something John the Baptist showed when he reacted in his mother’s womb. A religious affiliation in today’s vocabulary may suggest a specific belief system among men. I doubt that if they are preprogrammed to be a Christian or Atheist but I see no reason to doubt that they are unaware of the Divine. Unprovable except through scripture which many reject outright or in part.

Which is it?
I am using the same terminology as you used.

What’s the question sonship?
I've asked you so many that you bury your head in the sand about, its hard to keep track.
I think the last or next to the last one I asked HERE was something like - How would you prove or just demonstrate that once a person DIES he is incapable of further sinning.
And it WAS a genuine question. I was open to hear your logic. I don't KNOW that sinning ceases when the soul leaves the body and enters into another realm.
I think that was close to last or the last major question.
Seriously dude; I’ve had a 12 hour day with included 4.5 hours of driving, a top customer meeting, a uk management team meeting and a 1-2-1 with chief commercial officer.
We are all busy with other responsibilities ... dude. Not just you drive here and there and cannot always keep up on every comment.
Funny that when it comes to some poster Roman1009's being banned the same consideration isn't held about me possibly knowing nothing about it. I'm suppose to know all about that, right?
Were not all at home reading watchman nee comics and practicing our html skills.

At the judgment seat of Christ, I wouldn't mind having spiritually service like this for the Body of Christ to present rather than the collection of ... posts ... we've seen from you here for years.
And no more wisecracks about my HTML !!
@kellyjay saidSorry Kelly but you clearly have that back to front. It is 'the text' that doesn't line up with evidenced data of our evolution.
Your belief system doesn't line up with the text so the text is wrong, there are a lot
of people of that mindset.
It merely confirms that the writer of Genesis was unaware of our true origin as a species.

@Ghost-of-a-Duke
According to Hugh Ross the current designation of man is "Homo Sapien Sapien".
Just listen to just the first 10 minnutes.
Possibly described as Old Earth Creationist - astrophysicist - Phd.
Who was Adam? - Hugh Ross
But out of curiosity -
What was the very first instance of biological Natural Selection ?
@sonship saidYour claim that you didn't notice his creepy behaviour spread across thousands and thousands of posts spamming hundreds of threads over a period of nine months is not believable.
