Really Scott, is it any wonder that we can't have intelligent interchange on matters of theology when you can't even read a simple sentence and deal with the intended meaning of that sentence? Did I ever imply everyone was saved? Was it my intent to imply such a thing? No, I simply made the point that Roman Catholicism teaches that someone can be completely ignorant of the Christian faith and still be saved, without any reference or allusion to number. Do you take any time to read and comprehend what is posted? This is the second time you have accused me of hiding things or spinning Roman dogma just because I did not deal comprehensively with the subject when it was never my intention to do so, only to bring to light those areas where the biblical testimony and the Roman Catholic assertions part ways in a serious way. Unless you can show how by choosing not to address an unrelated teaching of your communion, I have contradicted or changed the meaning of the particular teaching that I am bringing to light, your posts decrying misrepresentation are nonsense and demonstrate an unwillingness to debate the issue at hand.<br><br>So tell me Scott, just because Roman Catholicism does not teach absolutely everyone outside the Roman communion will be saved, how is this relevant to my point that they leave open the possibility of salvation for those who have never even heard of Christ? Are you disputing that Roman Catholicism teaches that such people may be saved as they follow their consciences because had they known of Christ and baptism they would have received it? Tell us how just because not all are saved who are outside the communion of Rome is in any way relevant to my point that they provide the possibility of their salvation. Stop kicking up sand and deal with what has been posted.<br><br>Jason.
