"Battling for the hearts and souls of the pagans...." by adopting many of their traditions into Christian traditions.Inclusion?? Are you serious?
Christians were NOT inclusive.
Unless you consider burning heretics and non-believers at the stake so they could join you in heaven inclusive.
When you look back at history and the advent (good word choice if i do say so myself) of Christmas, inclusiveness was the last thing on any Christians mind. They were battling for the hearts and souls of the pagans, and any and all non-believers, EVEN if it meant killing all of them to convince them of the error of their ways.
Yes, Chrstianity is the religion of Peace.. or pieces, as those that were quartered or ripped apart on the rack would be after the fact.
Yes, many Christians were bad and did "wrong" things. Can you ever show me where I suggested something else?
