I wasn't trying to make you mad, I wanted you to see that I never made such a statement as that and yes you should have made your intention clear. Apology accepted. No I do not pick and choose from the scriptures, why should I they all hold truth and to deny any truth would be a discredit to myself and an insult to God.

Yes I clearly am as defined in the Christian world, I do not live by the definition of a Christian from an atheist, you have no idea what Christianity is.

I was raised in a fundamentalist, evangelical Christian church for over 10 years; used to memorize whole books of the Bible at church camp.
Many have memorized much in the Bible but that doesn't make you a Christian and not being a Christian means you do not understand what it is to be a Christian. By the way and I think I've said this before, for someone who has memorized the Bible you sure do not us it in your arguments, could it be you are afraid of the effects it could have on you.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
