Actually, we _are_ going to have to know the answer to this question some day (and all other questoins for that matter.) I can buy the "we aren't ready for the answer" argument much more than a "don't need to know because it's not important for my eternal salvation."

All knowledge is important for our eternal salvation. We're going to have to know how to do everything perfectly before we can become perfect ourselves.

my breakfasts are good and dead when I eat them) breakfast are important
parts of being a good person, and are therefore a part of attaining
salvation.  Speculating about things that we can't possibly know and that
aren't really important to us are not.

Is understanding Linux vital to your salvation? Is getting a college
education vital to your salvation? Is eating a health breakfast this
morning vital to your salvation?

Just because it's not vital to your salvation doesn't mean it's not
important. Sounds like a cop-out to me ;-)
