4. The Church did a lot of wrong doings in the past including the crusades, and it is still encapsulated in mystery, but you cannot deny its contribution to humanity and the hundreds of missionaries it sends to countries in need. And remember one thing the church is made of people and people can be thwarted by sin, and people are different ex you cannot compare pope alexander 6th with the receantly deceased pope who was so close with his people and spread love throughout the world.
well, let's just say that sending missionaries is exactly one of those things that makes christianity a sickening religion. why don't christian let other people believe what they want and let them live like they want to live ...
almost every country visited by missionaries is worse off than before! they had developed ways of life which fitted best for them, but then they were forced to live in a christian (thus European) way ...
and for modern day missionaries: why the hell do only people who become christian deserve help? ... it's christianity that is responsable often for their misery in the first place!
how can you possibly think it is a good thing that those missionaries are telling people that condoms don't work and are bad when they are dieing of AIDS ...
don't explain it to me, because I do know actually why christians do stuff like this (I'm studying it at university so please keep your explanations to yourself).
let's make a deal: you keep believing in what some politicians decided in the fourth century, and let the rest of the world believe whatever they want and let them live in the way they want to be! no one is waiting to hear about some fantasy to determine their lifes!
so, it was my final word. there has been a topic like this one before, and to be honest, I don't want to be sickened again by stupidity and egocentric shit that you christians are portreying all the time for the past 2000 years! (and no I don't only mean those crimes against humanity, although no one has ever committed as much as christians have, catholic or otherwise, but I also mean by making people feel guilty about every thing that they feel and want, or for enjoying themselves!)
it is a simple fact: without christianity, the world would be much more developed by now, and much more people would be able to live a normal, natural and good way of life. I would refer you to the books and philosophers to read, because you are so brainwashed, but oh well, what good would it do (okay okay: start with Richard Dawkins).
p.s.: oh just had to add that every pope of the 20th century (and so far the 21st as well) has been a dictator with the blood of millions on their hands, not for the crimes in the past, but for the ones they have committed every day (like aiding the nazi's, like supressing the labourers, like allowing people to spread AIDS and let them keep breeding so that Africa is overpopulated, like humiliating other religions, ....)
