And Christianity isn't?

This is somewhere on this forum. I'm not quite sure where. And I believe the guy posts on the next couple of pages.

And yes, I know Luke 19:27 was not said by Jesus.

The true beauty of a self-inquiring sentient universe is lost on those who elect to walk the intellectually vacuous path of comfortable paranoid fantasies.

Pretty sure events 1800 years (giving 200-300 years as the foundation period) later don't really count towards the foundation of the Christian religion.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

Really? Because Christianity began as a Jewish sect around that time.

It began as a Jewish sect in the 1950s? Not really that sure if you read what you posted.

I misread what you said. But if you had a longer attention span you may have noticed the events from 17-18 centuries ago below it.

Those events were later when it became the state religion of the Roman Empire.

....One of the major factors in how it became so popular. Christians showed that they would have killed everyone who didn't agree with them immediately, but they at first had no power to do so.
