I don't know where the years went. 51, never had a gf, never married, living in a nice house with no mortgage. Not sure if that's all a good thing but it is what it is.

Never had a girlfriend. Never got married. Now 51 and knocking about in a nice semi-detached house with 3 bedrooms and no mortgage :). I'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing. However, it is what it is.

I really think the best thing is just to forget it all, and read the Bible now and again when you feel like it.

You'd have to go back over 60 million years, when there were no humans around!

But nobody can "accept Christ" without God working in them. Everyone is lost by default.

Then what about the scripture which says women should not preach in church because of the created order, nothing to do with the "conditions at the time". 1 Tim 2 v 11 - 14.

Only God can have the final word, so never write yourself off.

Only God has the final word. So whatever you think or feel, you cannot exclude yourself.

Only God has the final word. So nobody should exclude themselves in this life, despite their experiences or actions.

Unless God changes and softens hearts, nobody would be saved. That's your answer.

"Free will" means you are at liberty to do what you desire. It doesn't mean you are ABLE in any way to come to God or convert yourself. The problem at this point is to do with morality, not freedom in a philosophical sense. That's why there's no contradiction between predestination and "free will".

Fundamentalists often subscribe to unscientific and irrational beliefs, like young-earth creationism or kjv-onylism.

No. I believe in a general resurrection only, rejecting all premillenialist and dispensationalist views.

It's his brand of premillenial dispensationalism - one of the wackiest around. Personally I subscribe to neither premillenialism or dispensationalism, because to me they are prioritizing a particular interpretation of more obscure scripture passages (e.g. Revelation 20) over the plainer ones...

Should they go to either? If they are called by God, why would they go to Bible College?

We are not living in Old Testament times.

In short, no.
