Well, to be fair (and I try to be) for centuries, Christians were persecuted horribly for their faith... Eventually, however, Christianity got even more organized, and eventually were in charge of nations, armies, etc... and once it got strong enough, began to persecute in return. Even Christians fell victim to human nature, and ya know what they say about power, and what a corrupting influence it is. Those who opposed it were "removed", savages were "saved" by death, or forcibly converted, and heretics were killed... Christianity was covered with the stench of Death... I think that was what finally awakened it to what it was doing, and over time policies changed, time went on, governments and nations came and went, and eventually...

... Christianity ended up as it is today. I like the Christianity of today, personally... :o)
