Short 2000 year stint? Very few things last 2000 years, and of those that have none can be said to have had more influence on the world than
Christianity.
Yes with its murdering of thousands if not millions of people that don't believe its crap. Yes that it a worthy religion eh?
And I challenge you to show me something, anything, that has been around 2000 years and not been perverted by greedy men to better their own
situation.
I totaly agree that there is very little but christianity seems to be the most greedy of most religions although I see Islam as
getting more perverted but that may be due to the christian leadership of the western world seeemingly thinking it has some sort of authority (which
it doesn't).
Why do you single out Christianity? Why do you harbor so much hate in your heart? Is it because you are searching for something to fill the
void?
Because I find that christianity is the biggest source of dissent within the world today. The muslims are just as pissed off with the
christian leadership with the "my way or the high way" attitude. Christianity has NO right nor authority to suggest such things due to it being a
false religion and even if it wasn't it still has no authority.
You’re hurt, and you are lashing out, but you are still loved.
Yes loved by my family and friends not by some invented deity that a minority of people believe exists - you tend to forget that there are
over 20,000 christian denominations who disagree in one way or another in some way. Which other religion has such divisions? NONE, just goes to show
eh?
Do you deny that christianity has had a role in the division of the world?
Yes, this I deny.
Its really a pity that swearing is prohibited on this site or you would have at least 100 profanities sent towards you
against your reply. Christianity has killed more people in one way or another than any other religion. Only disease has killed more but then again
isn't religion a disease that infects the mind?
Just as with anything that has been around that long you can point to dark (on the inside) men who have attempted to pervert it for their own good.
Yes just as the worlds religions continue to do so today
However if one follows the word of the Christ as he spoke it, one will be filled with love, understanding, peaceful intentions, humbleness, charity
and good will towards all men be they Christian or not.
Why do christians feel they have the monopoly on morals and ethics (swear words
again). Well before the supposed jesus these values were in use. It seems even jesus stole stuff from the buddhist way of thinking.
Why can't you realise that christianity is a false religion that has stole most of its values from the other religions that surrounded it at the
time. FFS it stole xmas, easter and even tried to capitalise on halloween with its all saint's day pish.
Do you even know of what happened during the early years of christianity?
Its not as if I hate individual christians themselves hell my family are christian but the religion itself is a scourge on humanity as is
every other.
No, like I said, the religion is no scourge. The few men who have used it poorly are the scourge.

I agree that man would find some other way to subjegate the populace if not for religion but religion seems
to be the best way so yes religion is a scourge on humanity.
