Default Re: Simple Question For Not Ready And Others

I tend to think the syllogism D is not valid, as its first premise is not valid -- at least in some Christian traditions, simply not believing is different from actively rejecting (but both are 'nonbelievers'), and in some there is a place for "virtuous nonbelievers" to do a little time in purgatory and be set right. There is nothing STOPPING god from saving whomever he pleases.
