LOL!
Yes, if you knew your biblical history you would know that Christianity was originally a Jewish sect. Jesus was a Christian, which was a branch of Judaism of the day.
You are confusing early Christianity with Catholicism. Peter served as the first Pope, Peter and Paul were both martyred. Things started to change with the rise of Catholicism.
The scribes Peter and Paul argued extensively with one another over how many of the traditions from the other Jewish sects should be carried over to the new Christian base. The timeline rolled onward.......And then we had that movie Mel Gibson made about the Crucifixion.

I'd rather sit on a pile of red ants eating Ben and Jerry's 'Cherry Garcia' then have to set you theologically straight. Or theologically gay, whatever your theological preference. You've presented so many 'far gone' conclusions that I hold more then enough wisdom to know that you will continue to walk nilly-willy down the yello brick road. But I will gladly referee a Texas Steel Death Cage Match between you and Mel Gibson. If you have the cahoons to get into the cage with the Gibster.

I disagree. You are saying that theoretically socialism is good, Im saying its not even good theoretically. How is socialism good theoretically?
If we live on an Island, a small group of people, and I build a boat that I plan to give to the Community, how is it good for "the collective" to come take my boat away, depriving me of the chance to truly give?

Almost no one will be a millionaire. This is one of the flaws of socialism.

I travel 3 miles to and from work on a piece of crap road full of pot holes, so...
I went to school, but now I pay a large amount in school taxes to two different counties and I have no children.

And now that Utopians have diverted the whole socialist conversation over to theological metaphors, I have this to say: No more comparisons to Jesus, okay? That's really, really silly.
