: : Thomas Jefferson: "I have examined all the known superstitions of the word, and I do not find in our particular superstition of Christianity one redeeming feature. They are all alike founded on fables and mythology. Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned. What has been the effect of this coercion? To make one half the world fools and the other half hypocrites; to support roguery and error all over the earth." : -- Six Historic Americans by John E. Remsburg, letter to William Short -------

Like any organism, we have to survive. One of the important traits in survival and which created this lovely surrounding we humans call world is opportunity. Saying Christianity is a large culprit in the creation of the modern worlds' ills is naive. May it be any goverment, religion, and individuals at anytime in history or prehistory your existencs guarantees to affect someone else or anything, good or bad. Humanity affects period.
