Re: It seems such a nutty topic for a thread
Wouldnt you say the 1800s in this country, were a time where Christianity dominated the thinking of both the land and the people? I would
Yeah, providing you weren't Irish, Chinese, Black or Native American.

Re: It seems such a nutty topic for a thread
So just like DA you cant make a distinction between the tenets of a religion and peoples thwarted attempts to apply it
Christianity has nothing to do with a persons failure to apply Christs commands correctly
That is the point. There was no "Golden Age" It has been nothing but exploitation, in the name of "Christianity."

Re: 1800's Golden Age
This begs the question. Do we really want to live in a biblical golden age where we get to kill every man, woman, and child of a city we conquered?
No, I'm an Atheist and don't believe in killing men, women & children. I'll leave that to the radical right wing Theists.

Re: 1800's Golden Age
Yes, it's kind of hard to rape a dead virgin.
