Christians don't need definitive answers on specific theological points in order to trust in Jesus and the authority of Scripture. It seems to me that you are exaggerating internecine squabbles to justify your incredulity.

You don't think definitive answers about the nature of salvation are important??

Of course not. He expect us to be at least as gullible as he is. lol @ theology. as if it was ever such a great exercise in futility. heh, its his life. As to salvation... A poor construct based on simple human fear, greatly used by religion to pay the bills and their spreading of empty words, that will keep paying their superior morality bullshit.
