PROLIFE. I wasn't questioning whether salvation was by works vs. faith, just the relevance of your post to mine (which you were replying to).

I cited some writings of Josephus (in defense of your position, btw), and mentioned that there was evidence that parts of it are later insertions. You said:

yes, educated non-believers will always have ""evidence""
(with the quadruple quotes signifying your skepticism, I presume)

Believers will have something else.

This would be similar to me replying to you with:

yes, you might have ""faith""
But I have a ferrari.

My (imaginary) ferrari is not only irrelevant to your post, but it smacks of one-upmanship.

So, I apologize if I mistakenly took your post as condescending, but I hope you can understand why it came across to me that way.
