Originally posted by twhiteheadThan what I said I believe covers it.
I think that what religion we have as adults is largely based on what religion our parents had, and the prevailing religion in the area we live in. I therefore see it as largely a matter of chance that one is Christian.
If entry to heaven is predicated on being Christian, then it seems to me rather unjust as it is equivalent to randomly handing out entry tickets.
We by our choices live where we do, the result of that is that we have our
kids there and so you end up with social pressures of that region. Which
will result in our grand kids facing the same things, until someone one
makes the choice to move some where else and then the whole thing
starts anew.
We have our kids and we teach our kids as we see fit, again this is us
putting our choices into action.
None of those things can stop anyone from becoming a Christian, and
neither does being born into a Christian family cause one to be forced
into being a Christian either.
That does not fit reality.
So I don't see any injustice.
