As you said before, any amount of it could be wrong, but we can still decide whether interpretations of certain text (such as the eternal punishment) are sound. I assume it to be true in the context of a fictional story; anything beyond the text cannot possibly be known 100%, only our best guess.(highlighted by myself)
I have problems with this statement, from both Christians and non, for numerous reasons. I'm pretty sure I know what you'll quote as support, but for the record, can you tell me why you would believe this?
