I don't see Born Again Christians claiming an exclusivity to the Holy Spirit and power over it through their ordinances

No, they just claim the "eyes" and "ears" and accuse everyone else of not having them.

The history of the great state sponsored churches was to destroy any who disagreed

Last time I checked the Reformed did ther best to destroy Anabaptists.

One of the perceptive things the old dork Freud said that was accurate was . . .

Even a religion based on love would be unloving to those not members of it.

And, Christianity of every brand, flavor has proven it so sooner or later . . . .

The old

IN-GROUP/OUT-GROUP dynamics, evils.

Thank you for agreeing! It's rare. :-)

I wasn't pointing just at you guys. I would hope we recognize how wrong it was for any dominant Christian Church to persecute other Christians. We should evangelize and attempt to show where they have gotten off track.
