It seems more likely that "scoffers" refers to folks who have abandoned by active, conscious choice both the creative and destructive power of God, his Alpha and his Omega. His greeting is to sincere believers, thus "scoffers" most probably refers most closely to a type of "god is dead," or "science is god" mindset, in my view.

Well I'm not going to argue doctrine with you, I know we disagree there. Scoffers are non-believers and I just showed you the ratio of true believers versus nonbelievers is striking.
