Oh  yea, pick on the minority will ya....  You, I hope, will note that I am
not
specifying directions, I am simply laying out possible paths.

By "salvation vector" are you trying to describe a merit list of those

God, can we scrap this vector?  There is no "god" and there is no
"salvation" vector".  Can we put it to rest in this forum, as a thread,
forever?

Now completely separate from that one has a discussion of "who deserves to
be saved".
I would argue that the "saving" paradigm is a brief intersection in the
MBrain paradigm.
There may be a few moments during which the saving of static paradigms is a
default.
