if you say that christians who have been baptized in the titles are saved, but people who practice Shintoism arent, then you are exactly the same as those you accuse. Your line has just shifted a bit.
It is the bible, not me that says "If the Gospel is hid, it is hid to those who are lost"

hmm, to that i would reply that it is not my business to judge other peoples' salvation. That is between them and God, however they see Him. Shinto is a pagan religion, so off to a bad start, imo; but that does not mean that some Shinto's may not have spiritually discovered "pick up your cross," which after all is just how we say "sacrifice yourself so that others may see."
Yes, i have moved the line--off the page, and into the spiritual--i would like to believe--which to me is just how we say "into the everyday human transactions of life." Now, relating that to your quote, i read "if being the bigger person in a difficult matter eludes you, it is because you have no clue." Would you accept that?
