I think you're working off a false choice.

Mr. G maintains if a person doesn't accept JC as his Lord/Savior/etc....he is doomed for all time.

You describe that as "forcing you". Meaning you either submit to his wish willingly or you will be compelled to by some other force.

Nonsense. No one can force true faith. Its impossible. A person can act out the part, but no one ever really, truly knows what in someone else's mind.

Another way to say this is have faith in your faith. All three of us find ourselves in a place in our lives where we profess to have some understanding of what role faith plays in our lives. Each one is different from the other two. I can't say if one of us is right, nor can I say if one of us is wrong. Maybe we're ALL right...maybe we're ALL wrong, eh?
