My church has collected around $1500 this month of June for disaster relief that will go to people living not only in the US but worldwide (this money is for disasters like floods, tornadoes, but also for ongoing disasters like people not having clean water or sanitation.) This money helps all people, no matter what their religion. Is this "nutty"? And can I reverse the question to you in a kind way - what are you doing to help people living in disaster areas all over the world?

On one hand they are historically responsible for the Inqusitions and Witch burnings and putting Blacks in the balconey.
On the other hand they are responsible for Hospitals that save people in American and elsehwere and Education in America and elsewhere.
It's sort of a trade off
Without RELIGION there would be no HARVARD
With religion there WAS Salem, MA!

Christianutty - Is that a new flavor at the Starbucks or Coffee-Bean? With an extra splash of Hazelnut, Walnut and Almonds with a double shot of expresso? Comes in both Frappucino/IceBlended and Brewed?

Taking the words of their prophet Jesus, and twisting just about everything to make something different than he wanted. Jesus tried to reform Judaism. But the Jews wanted a military messiah, and Jesus didn't go for that. He certainly did not want to start a new religion. His followers started the Jesus movement and that led to Christianity.

Lotsa good and lotsa bad stuff. I'm O.K. with throwing the baby out with the bathwater in this case, though.
