"Good" & "Bad" Christians?

[downbeatplumb]

Since Christianity is inherently immoral, it’s a negative for any assessment of a person overall.  Thankfully, most people are better than their religion.

Why is christianity inherently immoral?

The book it is based on, the bible encourages or excuses many actions and prejudices which are in my view immoral.

You know the ones. It' treats women as lesser. (in the bible on two different occasions "good" men offer their daughters up to gang rape tp spare male guests). Women have to perform rituals to become clean.

Witch killings in Europe became very common in Germany thousands of innocent women were murdered in the most awful way.

It allows slavery, incest, mass murder, child murder etc.

Is used to persecute homosexuals.

And by separating the world into believers and non-believers has been the excuse for vast numbers of killings in the name of Christ, viewing non-believers as fair game.

Look at what happened in the Americas or to the Cathars in france.

"Influenced by strongly influential" and yet they were so "influential" in Vatican that it took Vatican until the year 1992 to admit that Galileo was right. So, good job - or not, you decide.

Here is the best book I know of on Galileo's conflict with the Vatican.

If you wanted to change the subject and discuss that you could. 

I brought up the Vatican humanists only to show that, contrary to what has been claimed, Christians 500 years ago were not zealot fundamentalists. There were many kinds of Christians, but to pretend they were a monolithic group of witch-burners is just false.

They kinda were though.
