"other Christian organizations

This has nothing to do with my answer to you. You are ranting and spilling typical leftist nonsense.

Take note; If you don't respond to posts directly about the issue then people will ignore you on Free Republic.

We are here to share ideas and discuss the issues. If you want to bash the Catholic Church there are better threads to do it on.

If you think that intelligent people here will debate college learned brain-washing go back to school!

Simply stated then -

the Crusades could not have been a mark against "Christianity" as only the Catholic church existed at the time -

The late players to the religious arena were not outed (did not come along) for many years -

That is not bashing the Catholic church - but they were the only game in town - unless you count the Druids.
