Re: Chiroptera demolishes a straw god
Now, that depends on your definitons.
There is a big big difference between the way the CHrisitians view 'Rightousness' and Judiasm views 'righthousness'.
In CHristianity, 'righthousness', 'grace' and 'sin' are states someone is in. People are born with the 'stain' of 'original sin'.
In Judiasm, rightousness is defined by actions. a baby is born as a blank slate.
You are also assuming that the 'God' that exists is the Christian god.
What if it is the deist god, or the panthest god?
