As I recall the Biblical injunction, it says : "He who believes and is baptized shall be saved" According to my introductory logic courses, this statement is mute on the fate of non-believers. Any takers??? Stuart Kurtz. (My opinions are my own.) **************************************************************************** I really don't see what this has to do with creationists and it really belongs in net.religion but I'll bite this once. I believe that in MATTHEW (somewhere) it says "not everyone who calls me Lord, Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven." Also, I remember reading in REVELATIONS that Christ threatened to BLOT OUT the names of people from the BOOK of LIFE if they did not change their ways. So I guess there are some conditions to the deal. Christians, take note! As for others, not believing in Christ isn't an instant ticket to hell, (at least in MY understanding). What I believe happens is that those who don't have their names in the BOOK of LIFE have to suffer through the JUDGEMENT. (Hence, JUDGEMENT day) Not my beliefs, by the way, just my understanding of what I remember reading. Judy
