I'll put on my theological hat for a moment.
Likely jar is right in that most of the goats will be Christians, but he seems to think that belief is unimportant and that behavior toward others is key.
This is where modern Christianity has gone astray. It misconstrues faith as belief. But those are not the same. Faith should be more like trust. To have faith in Jesus is to follow his commands, even when you don't fully understand them.
That's the whole point of "faith without works is dead". If you have the faith, then behaving toward others should come naturally. The idea that you are saved by faith alone, is simply that your behavior is graded on effort rather than actual results. The widows mite was a very small amount, but it indicated a lot of effort.
Taking "faith" to be merely empty belief pretty much destroys the whole basis for Christianity.
His idea of God and my idea of God are entirely different.
Yes, they are.
In fact, most of you reject God because the Deity failed to produce conclusive evidence for you to examine.
If people were working together to form a better world, that would be enough evidence for me. But they aren't, and too often it is the Christians who are failing us.
And perhaps thats a weakness of Biblical Christians(people who believe in a literal Bible, an exclusive connection with God through Jesus Christ) and ironically usually a selfish streak in them that would have them protect the assets and interests of their family first...before humanistically helping the world-at-large.
They looks so much like the intellectual heirs of Judas Iscariot. Every day they betray Jesus for 30 pieces of silver.
