there was once a pagan god called mithras who did all the same things as jesus and we got all the holidays from pagan festivals so christianity is like pagans so look at the point in the roman empire of constinte the"great" the western half of the empire was paw and needed money constintine did not want people to riot over high taxes so i you look back in history christianity cost alot of money and people pay the poor box and the confession tax at the time and that brougth in money and constine want more money so he made the eastern half christian and they all followed the pope who was like a big taxman but in modern day christanity costs no money and people worship freely but could someone of any religion comment on my christian theory and if any christians think they migth want to convert i would like to hear about it if you have read up to hear you are very smart (i know my spelling is bad and my spellcheck dosnt work) so in conculsion christianity back then was a big tax scam

Mithra again? Good grief.Okay,let's clarify a few things.

"there was once a pagan god called mithras who did all the same things as jesus"

Wrong.Very wrong.Apart from the fact that Mithra and Jesus were not even similar,Roman Mithraism is dated to *after* the start of Christianity.Christianity came before Mithra.Here's an extensive debunking of the Mithra=Jesus claim.
http://www.tektonics.org/copycat/mithra.html

"and we got all the holidays from pagan festivals"

Some of the holidays were adapted from pagan traditions.That does not affect Christianity in any way,as these celebrations were never mentioned in Scripture.

"christianity cost alot of money and people pay the poor box and the confession tax at the time and that brougth in money and constine want more money so he made the eastern half christian and they all followed the pope who was like a big taxman but in modern day christanity costs no money and people worship freely but could someone of any religion comment on my christian theory and if any christians think they migth want to convert i would like to hear about it if you have read up to hear you are very smart (i know my spelling is bad and my spellcheck dosnt work) so in conculsion christianity back then was a big tax scam"

Again,not true.Christianity did not start in the era of Constantine.Christianity was illegal in the Roman Empire,and Christians were hunted down and killed in various ways.It had nothing to do with tax.

I'm not an expert on the doings of Constantine. But the scripture that he used and cannonized was around long before his time. We have older scripture than he had to verify the one's they had at that time. So if he thought it was a huge tax scam, then he stumbled on a way to get all the truth in one place. It's almost as if God had something to do with it.

Why you don´t go to Lourdes, Fatima, Betania or Corpino and see the people standing up from Wheel Chairs, getting cure of cancer, Aids and all sort of illness and everything cientifically demosntrated with x rays, blood test etc...Why you speak **** about what you don´t know. ON difference with Muslims we don´t tell you to read the Bible to gain knoledge or we don´t tell you that the language of God is Arabic...we don´t threath you to cut your head and we let you live and talk whatsoever you are so ignorant in your observations and so driven by heat...John´s the Baptist was afected by modifications in the Bible so Magdalen, The Christian Angels and Saints prove themselves everywhere around the world, and we can prove it...If you don´t like good for you, don´t come like many other making false staments coming from nowhere... Your MUSLIM fake propaganda will not afect a faith that had changed the world...why you don´t take care of Iran, Irak, Somalia, Sudan, Ethiopy, Palestina, Pakistan and Afganistan...you have a lot to speak with Sunnins and Shiitas to stop the muslim on muslim kills everyday...I believe in facts and not in Blah blah blah

...who's been teaching you...? The Pope...? Please ! surly you don't believe all that, do you....? God's Word is so very clear... well if you read it it is... get a good copy of His Word and read from the Book of Romans... Chapter 1 vs. 16 is a good place to start... (after you've looked that over, please, tell me where it talks about "Christianity or The Pope or , well you'll see"... great reading... then... read the Book of John. Or...rent the movie, it's at Blockbuster...The Book of John. I will give you a better understanding of whats going on.....
Shalom.

i thought about that too, but no one seems to be interested in the question. and i guess you are right about the big tax scam like pardons for money and all the other stuff.
