You make the call.

1) Once it took over politically, Christianity set out to eradicate Classical Civilization. So much was lost!

2) In so doing, they started a thousand year Dark Ages. Life was miserable, progress stultified.

3) They killed not only pagans, but even other Christians with non-"orthodox" views.

4) The Crusades-- wrongheaded fiascos.

5) The Inquisition-- tyrannical, torturous.

6) Thirty Years' War-- depopulated Europe.

7) Witch burning

8) The Religious Right-- retrograde, theocracy-craving radicals

Jesus supposedly said, "By their fruits shall you know them. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit." The fruits of Christianity are listed above. It has been so evil so much that, by Jesus's criterion, it cannot be from God.

I am an OU student writing a project which deals with how people who work/live in rural areas view London and its affect on their sense of identity. Also the reverse, how people who work/live in London view rural areas and its affect on their sense of identity. I posted a question regarding Denmark and Copenhagen recently as this is the other country I am using for my project. Sadly, as yet, no ex-pat Danes have seen the question and replied.

What if someone in modern times such as David Koresh,who claimed to be the returning Messiah,really was and we killed him.How are we to actually know when Christ has returned.I think that if he really were coming back he would change his mind after looking at the mess we humans have made of this Earth.

I found out accidentally though an email that my daughter has consulted not only one psychic, but is on her second after the first "took her $40,000." I need to know how to bring my daughter to the table to fess up and face this problem. She is aware I'm aware but does not know I have all the details.

My daughter is single, lonely and turning to psychics for answers. I know, dumb, a no-brainer. I don't need the attitude. I am worried about her as her health is fragile and she is gainfully employed, but probably neither will hold for long. No one else to turn to. We are in our 60's and are floored by this.

I got hold of the 800 # of the psychic and left a message with the word "fraud" in it and am expecting a phone call back today. It will probably never come. What retribution may be available? Authorities? I could commit my daughter or tie her up. (kidding) Maybe slap her.

I'm trying to reconcile the idea of the biblical God being a God who loves Humanity, and a few verses in the bible.

Consider the following:
After God curses all of Humanity with death, disease, and the inheritance of original sin, Humans go out and multiply. Eventually, God decides death, disease, and inheritance of original sin isn't enough.

He decides to drown all Humanity, with the exception of Noah and his immediate family because they still worship God.

God decides to drown every new born infant, toddler, child, pregnant woman, and the rest of Humanity.

In fact, that not being enough, God also decides to drown every living creature that breathes air except those saved on the Ark.

So how does this demonstrate God's love for Humanity? He's wiped out every human being except eight.

At church we are called upon to sacrifice two meals (all food and all drink including water) once per month and give at least the value of those meals as a fast offering. I can't sacrifice the meals due to health reasons, but do give an equivalent of money and try to sacrifice something else. But I got to thinking, for my sacrifice to be a true sacrifice, I must give up something that is difficult to give up. What do you think?

Judas committed suicide, yet before that Jesus guarenteed him a throne in heaven (along with the other 11 before Judas became a traitor.)

So if you beleive Jesus never lied, then Judas is in heaven on a throne judging over one of the 12 tribes of Isreal.

In other words, in your estimation, what defines someone who, financially speaking, is "rich"?
Is there a line in which someone goes from being "middle class" to "rich" and, if so, where is it?
Is it dependent on the number of material things owned?
