So there was this dude named Saul who was a right proper b---d. A freak accident with a bolt of lightning left him not quite right in the head.
He took the teachings of a renegade Jewish rabbi and turned them into something else entirely. But the whole Jesus thing was useful to him, because people had heard about him; it's really quite difficult to invent a religion without anything to hang it on. Paul convinced the Christians back then and they're still falling for it today.
If there was a man named Jesus back then, only echoes of what he said and taught are present in the religion we call Christianity.

for the same reason Muslims put Allah into theirs, merely convenience. Its much more convenient if they don't have to take the blame for any of their actions, just to say Godwants itthis way, However, as a caucasian, I find it highly offensiveforyou to say or inply that only christians have a bloody history. Lets face it, most of the blood in history over the past 2000 years has been caused by islam murdering thousands and millions in the mane oftheir religion. Even the crusades were a response to Muslims taking over the Christian holy land and murdering priests and nuns.

Do not worry about other people. You follow Jesus the way you think is the best and maybe your influence will show others how to do it right. We can only change ourselves : )

Jesus is the reason there is Christianity. so we are not trying to fit him in he was there from the beginning.

They stole him from the Jewish and built him up as a Christian or Catholic God. They have Very good brainwashing techniques.

B/c jesus is the only reason for our religion. You have to ask jesus into your heart to save you. Then you have a newfound love for him. You want to serve him and to be more like him. and there is this amazing peace in your heart.

Why do Catholics worship Mary more than they do Jesus? Isn't there something wrong in that picture???
Christianity is based on Jesus's teachings.
