How is it that you claim one's "choice" to accept or reject the offer of grace is salvation by works, but one's "response" to accept or reject the same is not? Don't both "choice" and "response" describe what's known as "thought"?

Man, a whole town of submissive chicks...what a blissful thought LOLOLOL

Oh, i get it. What a dark story! What was it that turned them into zombies?
