re: zero
Zero, just had to comment on some things you said including the response to my post a few pages back. Meant to do it sooner.
In fact, many of the things that they do are in direct violation of the Bible. How quaint.
Who said the sum teachings of the Bible are good? No one can really agree on the real message. Are we supposed to listen to Jesus when he says to love others as he loved the world, or when he condemns non-believers? There is no conisistent ideology that can be fitted to the Bible. That's why only hypocritical pragmatists like Vinth can follow it literally.
Earlier you remarked that violence on behalf of religion is man's fault. I think you do have a point here, man is ultimately responsible for his actions. However, you must admit that the circumstances in the instance I provided are somewhat different than the usual "why do bad things happen" argument. While most wars are the result of man's own failings the crusades and similar events, although perpetuated by man, would not have been possible without JC's words.
