Those are two very big "IFs" there.

I truly believe what I believe, BUT I am constantly learning and refining what I believe. By no means do I believe I have the ultimate answer or the key to getting into heaven. Other people may have suggestions and ideas, but I doubt any living human has a mystical "key to heaven."

IF I believed God wanted me to share those beliefs with others, I might feel obligated to share. I DO feel obligated to ACT on what I believe. But each of us is free to believe what they will. I have no obligation nor authority to try to change the minds of others. I DO share my beliefs with those who are open and curious and like to discus such things. But I do NOT consider it an obligation.
