Christianity has evolved in terms of
its church doctrine and Christian theocracy is extinct. Witches no
longer are burned at the stake nor does the Inquisition no longer
exist. The general concept is to follow the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, who even stopped a stoning session against a woman accused
of adultery. He did this not just on a humanitarian level, but to
emphasize that it is better to change a person other ways than
punishment by being stoned to death. He was more concerned about spirtuality than materialism.

I have always imagined that Paradise would be a kind of library.

Freedom of Religion - Freedom from Religion - Freedom of Public Display of Religion and Traditions
We establish no religion in this country, nor will we ever. We command no worship. We mandate no belief. But we poison our society when we remove its theological underpinnings. We court corruption when we leave it bereft of belief. All are free to believe or not believe; all are free to practice a faith or not. But those who believe must be free to speak of and act on their belief.
-- Ronald Reagan (Temple Hillel Speech, 1984)

Renewed Crusades: Not Learning From History or Common Sense Logic
Islamic conquest after the death of the
prophet of the Muslims, Mohammad, was probably the most bloodiest in
the history of mankind. One of the greatest historians who wrote the
Story of Civilization, Volume 4: The Age of Faith (Our Oriental Heritage) in a
multi-volume series, Will Durant, wrote objectively as he
wrote about the dark history of Christianity during what is called
the medieval period:
The Islamic conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history. It is a discouraging tale, for its evident moral is that civilization is a precious good, whose delicate complex of order and freedom, culture and peace, can at any moment be overthrown by barbarians invading from without or multiplying within.
