See, CL, this is what an 'honest mistake" looks like. He isn't rejecting any specific doctrine or belief system. He will not recognize the need for redemption in himself, thus he rejects, out of hand, any offer of salvation made known to him even in the abstract. Now I put it to you, CL, on what basis does such an individual claim to be good? Compared to what?
Goodness is determined by interactions with other intelligent moral agents. It is a social construct.
