This came up for me in the "create your own world system" thread.
I'd like to offer this for discussion:
If Jesus Christ is the beginning and the end - and time is timeless - I prefer the Christmas story. And since Rome was the governing authority of much of the world as the institution of Christianity was built up - it's not a surprise to me that they embedded a violent and militant focus into Christianity itself. Jesus died a violent death. It was a violent time. There's not much good about that, especially as it is still a very violent and corrupt world. It is time for humanity to shift priorities, I hope.
