Stumped on No Start! HELP!

Can anyone offer an opinion on this? I think BruceB is on the right track, it seems like something might be shorting out, but how can I ring out exactly what the problem is without replacing every part in the electrical chain, one by one until it miraculously works?
I'm sorry, auto electronics baffle me.

I'll try hitting those connections you mentioned again. Maybe I missed something or something is internally corroded that I didn't consider. I'll keep everyone updated.

^ this.
You could be running interior lamps off the battery surface charge which wouldn't require a clean connection.
Do you have a remote starter switch? Its a simple push button switch which connects the starter with the battery. Like this one:

Was reading other posts..Question for experts: would a bad neutral safety switch cause the symptoms that was posted here? And to APTech, have you tried starting the Jeep with the gearshift moved to the neutral position and even moving (or jiggling) the shifter while trying to start it?

Do you guys have any reason for this or r u just following old myths? Dielectric grease is non conductive and prevents corrosion so it can and should be used on pin connectors, bulbs, spark plugs, and any other terminals. When putting it on bolt together terminals or battery posts connect them then put the grease over top... duh
