Over and over I see the same ridiculous answers to their questions. If you don't agree with someone's point of view or faith... at least try not to be such juvinile imbeciles and go answer a question elsewhere. You all lend creedence to "doing the Devil's work". Pure idiocy!

I know Judaism was like the first religion who started to believe in God, and from it came Christianity because they had certain disagreements. But where did Catholicism came from and when? What was the disagreement that cause Catholicism form? Did Catholicism came first than Christianity. Catholics are also Christians for believing in Christ but you know what I mean.

I am refering more to it's history.

It's just like the midieval system. You "fear" you superiors, and you "serve" them so as to win their approval.

I understand very well why you believe in God - don't get me wrong, I do.

The concept of "God" is very calming to those who are insecure, like a method to the madness.

But some people aren't really true Christians. They convert to be "saved" from the ever-frightening hell. Or, they join because they are afraid that "God" will turn against those who don't.

But have you ever thought about the real point of Christianity? What Christ sought to teach all in the first place?

In my opinion, Christianity is not about going to heaven, or falling in favor of "the Lord." It's about what Christ taught to his diciples, the lessons of life, the basic everyday things that make people kind, honest, decent folk.

If God does no wrong, how are we to judge that? People's ideas of right (and wrong, for that matter) are different. So how do we know God does no wrong?

I honestly don't mean this to be a 'bash' of christians. I was born Roman Catholic, when I was about 7-8 my parents joined the prodisant sect of christianity. They dont really have laws. Of course there is the 'dont murder' and things as such thay all religions pretty much have, but they dont have life guiding laws. Jews follow kosher laws, daily prayer times and like 300+ commandmants. Muslims have the seven pillars of Islam. Catholics have no meat on lent, and confession stuff and all the other stuff I dont seem to remember. Also, all other religions have similar services for their holy day. christians differ from church to church and are louder, and what not. I really dont see how a religion doesnt have religious laws. I think its just people picked out what the liked from the newtestiment and turned that into a religion of lazy catholics (or whatever). And before anyone says im catholic or anything like that, im agnostic now that ive got out of the brainwash.

They say you never know if you are dealing with an angel or not. Well, I really don't care if they are angels in disguise, I don't give to them in order to score points in heaven. But I wonder, do you give in to the admonishments of Christ and give to these very poor people or do you judge them as losers, alcoholics, and generally depraved people and turn your back on them? Do you give them a dollar, buy them a bottle of water? Or do you just direct them to the nearest shelter? Are you afraid of them? What do you do?
