Hi, Janine,

Natural theology posits that God reveals Himself in nature, and, therefore, 
that it is possible to learn truths, virtues, etc. by observing material 
things. Some natural theologians also believe that one who has not heard of 
Christ can be saved through discovering His Will in nature, and they interpret 
certain comments by Paul to support this view.

I do not think that this viewpoint is supported in our Faith.

Not at all, Janine. We are all here to discuss these issues.
