You believe that the bible is inerrant, complete and exclusive word of god. If you don’t believe this please feel free to just say so instead of all this pouting.
You believe that Christ will grant you eternal life despite your being a persistent hound of a jackass in this life.

"The greater the sin, the greater the grace" -- are those words your guiding principle?

It seems you feel entitled to the gifts of Christ without actually following Christ.

@divegeester Sorry for the delay, as I was expecting to come sooner with a reply, but you got me thinking about the possibilities, and got lost in space, looking for the possibilities of other life out there. And to my thinking, it's possible, somewhere out there, in a far away galaxy. The mystery you pointed out is intriguing as a concept on possibilities. And since I believe the physical universe to be endless, logically, based on my thinking, there must be endless possibilities. But the other side will cite that God is a mystery, and that all things are possible with God, but not with man. Possibly, somewhere up there, there may be godlike, mysterious aliens. The term, alien, can also imply mystery, as all things unknown to us earthly temporary residents, are a mystery for sure. Do you know any aliens, for sure? Literally, there is no scientific proof of aliens, either visiting us, or still to come, but many hold that belief, especially the UFO hunters. But then, they, the other side, will contend that their Jesus is coming soon, a rider in the sky, riding flying horses, and will put an end to this discussion, and literally, also to this whole world, a mass of speculation into, literally, the mystery of life, as we know it, which is kind of a mystery for both sides of the aisle, since we really do not know. Faith on one side, and theories on the other far side. And a theory which is not able to successfully unite the macro and the micro physical laws of nature, will forever remain a mystery to both.

In a nutshell, yes, all things are possible, since it's possible that we may actually exist, and that's literally the nothingness from which we are supposed to come from. Both sides are closer to truth, but no one knows the truth, for sure. Some say that only God knows, as we all have just opinions, at best. We may call them theories based on mathematical equations, but without the possibility of proof. As everyone should know, the grass of possibilities always look more possible on the other side. Once we, literally, get to the other side, we will see our endless possibilities, UP CLOSE, or not at all. It's like Einstein said, literally, it's all a matter of time, relatively speaking.

In short then, you don’t know.

On a completely unrelated note, are there any herbal substances you enjoy consuming? 😀
