I don't think my questions are that tough.
Quote:I do not disagree with what Frankie said. "That the same blood washes the sins of the atheist away as it does for the believer." The only question then becomes, does the Atheist accept what Has been done for him?
What has been done for "the Atheist", Drich?
No, I'm not Drich, but I'm happy to answer your question. If I mess up maybe he'll explain my error. What has been done for the atheist is nothing actual. But you know that imaginary wonderful place the Christians created, the one with the "No Heathens Allowed" sign? Well the pope has taken that sign down off of his imaginary special place and is now willing to entertain the notion that the god he serves/conceives will consider the merits of each individual when deciding who to let into the special imaginary place.
Drich seems to be saying whether we actually are to benefit or not depends on whether we accept what has been done for us. Now that the imaginary do-not-enter sign has been removed from the imaginary door to the imaginary place, will we accept this gift respectfully or just go on calling them a bunch of wankers. I'm kind of on the fence. I am appreciative since with gifts, it's really the thought that counts. I just haven't the heart to point out they're still wanking. Do you?
