Everywhere in the world wars have been fought over the Bible and God. From the very beginning Jews were persecuted, scattered, attacked....
Right when Jesus Christ began teaching there were people that wanted to kill him. Nero, Diocletian (sp?), and many other emperors all tried to kill and annihilate Christians. The Crusades were so-calledly fought in the name of Christianity. Books on the Bible and the Bible itself were burned through the ages. In World War II Hilter tried to annihilate the Jews. Today, Christianity, God, and the Bible are the most disputed topics anywhere. Virtual wars are fought over creation vs. evolution. Christianity is hated throughout the world while many other religions (Mormonism, Buddisim, New Age) are all tolerated. Israel is the center for dozens of wars and exists in a state of perpetual tension.
Why is there so much anger, prejudice, and hate over this subject?
And why has it survived for thousands of years when so many have tried to kill it?
