My wife is a Christian. Do I get carry-over salvation by marriage association?

As a supposed "ex-leader", don't you think that you should know the answer to that without asking? Thinking

There are many takes on Christianity, but there is only one Christ. We all receive the Lord in different ways (or not at all if you're an atheist).

I know, that was my point; calling someone's credentials as a christian- or former one- into doubt because he doesn't immediately know an obscure fact from a denomination that he may not even be a part of, is ridiculous.

Wasn't it your version that equated unbeliever to deceiver? Thinking

No, that was just the language I was speaking, the meaning of words therein, and the consequences of the way your holy book phrased the premise.

lol, it's not my holy book, why is that so hard for you to grasp? Simple statements shouldn't be that hard to remember.

The language "you" were speaking? Does that mean the way you interpreted it?

The meanings of the words therein? The word "unbeliever" was not a part of that scenario, remember?
