What I have a problem with most is the "the world would be a worse place if there was no christianity", which would be true if you forgot about The Crusades, Thirty Years War, Ireland's problems, all the executions for being the wrong religion/denomination, the Pilgrims (the american mayflower stuff is a myth - the pilgrims went to America so they were free to persecute people for not being puritans), Slavery (encouraged in the bible), anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, Homophobia, general bigotry and many more I can't think of right now.
If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world. - J.R.R Tolkien
