...it`s odd. Judaism is OF the Jews...came with them, invented by them, grew up with them. Similarly Islam was developed by the Arabs and is likewise from them...native to them. But Christianity was definitely not of the Romans..it had nothing in common with them or their previous history..in fact, it came from a minor and despised corner of their empire...and yet Roman Christianity dominates the world...but was NEVER "native" to those who spread it OR those who had it spread all over them. It`s as foreign as can be to EVERYBODY who "believes" it today...native to none of them.

The Jews never sought to evangelize, except for a brief time...they settled for being unique and unto themselves. The Arabs spread their religion with them, like the Romans did, at the head of a conquering army, but they did NOT murder people into Muhammad...for all of Peter`s night sweats. They were really rather clever about it...knowing that most people have their "faith" on their sleeve, they merely taxed infidels at a greater rate. What more clever and cynnical way could there be to get people to switch? We`re told of all those Christian martyrs who allowed their children to be killed and themselves raped rather than give up Jesus..when the truth is more embarrassing and less compelling; they switched over just to avoid paying more in taxes. I mean if all it took to keep Jesus was five more dollars a month...what`s all the screaming about how Christians were "forced" to convert?

The truth, as always, is far more prosaic and less complimentary...the Muslims didn`t NEED to kill anyone into Muhammad...they merely made it cost more NOT to join. Of course the Church would downplay that and instead hyperventilate all about people DYING rather than giving up Jesus.

Christians it was who evangelized...I mean in the east, without an army at their backs. They went to China and Japan...and to India...and of course they remained in the Persian Empire...these would be your famous Eastern Christians...nobody bothered them so long as they kept the peace...the Chinese, Japanese and Pagan Persians allowed them entry...let them build their pissant churches and pray and chant all they wanted to...and it was more embarrassment because no one was interested, besides a few malcontentas who thought heaven might be better for business. They remained small pockets in those nations, convincing no one...marrying among themselves till today you have about the population numbers you`d expect from a bunch of rabbits who only screwed other rabbits. So, again, the Church comes up with manuscripts PROOOOVING that there were millions upon millions of them, including all the left over Assyrians BUT, alas and alack and wouldn`t you know it..them nasty Muslims came along and killed all those millions and millions..."or else we`d be BIG".

Eastern Christianity is a sickly, dueling, self-deprecating sort of thing and always has been with a few dirt poor monastaries and churches here and there. How could you eschew the things of this earth and NOT be?

Western Christianity is the power in the world and not because it was spread with peace and love but because VIOLENCE was used in converting people forcibly and that violence echoes down through the ages, remaining an integral part of the REAL belief system of these people and goes on wounding us and the planet yet.

Had western Christianity been the peaceful thing the popes claim it is they would have allowed the Protestant Reformation to move forward..instead they reacted JUST as Imperialist Romans would..they declared war against their own fellow Christians..killing and maiming and torturing even the heretic children.

Christianity IS violence! It doesn`t just condone and glorify it...it IS violence...starting with the tears of joy shed at the foot of the bleeding cross...tears of joy because, through the murder of this harmless man, YOU can get the GOODIES!!!

On earth, that makes you an accessory after the fact...which still means you deserve punishment, not praise for washing yourself in the blood of this Innocent victim. What an image!!!
