I had a conversation with a pastor friend of mine some time back about this. My question to him was "if gods love or the knowledge of god is born into each of us why would he allow people to never hear of him (isolated island etc)"
He told me that those people would ultimately not be held to any fault and would go to heaven. (he never addressed the born with moral thing)
I then asked him "if god would automatically save these isolated peoples, why would missionaries make it a point to go spread the 'good word' to these people if once they heard the message and decided to not believe they would be damned."
He answered with some BS about spreading love and kindness....left up to the person receiving the message to accept the truth ... blah blah blah...
Just sick.
"Tell you once you had better listen because tell you twice and I have spent one more breath closer to death.
