This is to what Paul said on the last page.You are saying that christians think that before Jesus,no one thought about being kind to each other.I don't think that's true,it's just that Jesus is a very good example to all of us and as christians,we talk about Jesus,that's all it is.It may seem unnecessary but actually when you look at the world around you,it is very necessary to remind ourselves of the basics.
When christianity began,it was just Jesus,then others preaching goodness,and from there it has turned into something like a business,and it's the same with christmas.It all began with something harmless and now look at it.It's like if atheism were to be corrupted over the years until everyone associates it with evil,when it isn't.
There's nothing wrong with christianity if christianity means the teachings of Jesus.When you add all the other things to it,the things that have been added to it over the centuries,you get something distorted,and not like the original,true christianity.When I hear people criticise it,I know what they mean but what they're criticising isn't christianity at all.
