Hey, Perry,

Believe me, I haven't forgotten about it. It was one of the most repugnant answers I've ever heard.

There was actually more. Later in the thread, I asked Howard how he personally "felt" about the notion that Jews who were killed in the Holocaust would still burn in hell. (Message #1030788)

Fully realizing that Howard didn't create the rules, I was curious about his opinion of the notion that being slaughtered still didn't earn a free pass.

Howard responded, in effect, that he was 100% comfortable that the choice of rejecting (or accepting Christ), and that choice alone, determines your eternal home.

One of the great things about using the socratic method - you find out if someone has a conscience.

(And by the way, I'm not attacking Howard - I'm attacking his ideas, which I find completely odious)

Kevin
