"When Christians dogmatically insist that Jesus is our only hope, it is a blow to people’s pride"
Well, yours, at least. [/snark]
"The lost"
*(Whips out pocket GPS*)
Can't be. Y'see, with this handy little device, I can always know exactly where I am, therefore it's impossible for me to be Lost. [/smartarse]
...oh, and in b4 'Spiritually'. Bollocks. The only 'Spirits' that exist are the bottles of Whisky, Gin, Vodka, Tequila etc on shelves in the supermarket that I pass on the way to the beer section. [/smartarse II]
"Those without Jesus want to determine what is right and wrong for themselves, and especially do not want someone saying that this is the way it is, and there is no other way."
I can decide things for myself, thank you very much. I grew up. But then, that's 'belief' & 'faith' for you; that an equally unseen old man with a beard determines who's been 'bad' & 'good'. God: Santa Claus for those adults who refuse to grow up. Oh, and Matthew 7:1. Therefore not only is your argument invalid, you probably going to be the one who takes my place in the Burning Lake, and I'll be the one up there, sexing up the hot female angels. >:D
