Christianity, Divisions, Fear Manipulation, and Post Modernist Theories
#9
RE: Christianity, Divisions, Fear Manipulation, and Post Modernist Theories
Quote:3) The teachings of Jesus of Nazareth (and Paul) contained a number of hopeful themes including (but not limited to) strength and assistance to endure the trials this life


More to the point what ultimately emerged was:

1: Pay your taxes,

2: STFU and do what you're told,

3: You'll get your reward in the "next" life....(meanwhile, we'll just clean up down here.)

Xtianity, like all religions, serves the needs of the rulers.
