I agree, that's better, but posts like that could still be problematic, for example:

> I believe that everyone should obtain salvation through Jesus Christ.

Using for guidance the examples at:

http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/admin/20020918/msgs/7889.html

Then these would be OK:

> I believe that my salvation can only be obtained through Jesus Christ.
>
> People of my faith believe that their salvation can only be obtained through Jesus Christ.

And these wouldn't:

> Salvation can only be obtained through Jesus Christ.
>
> I believe that salvation can only be obtained through Jesus Christ.

Does that make any sense? Sorry it gets so complicated,

Bob
