MY comments

Our knowledge of history and present is largely determined by what we are taught in school, told by friends or parents, read in books or learn watching TV. Widespread opinions of the everybody-knows variety are never questioned because it does not seem worth while, after all, everybody knows..., right?

Yet all too often, the real world is radically different from what we use to think it is. For example most people consider religion generally a source of good. Throughout history sundry religions have come and gone. The gods worshiped range from Moloch, Baal, Odin, Jupiter, Zeus, Aura Mazda, Jehovah, and Allah in the Ancient World and Europe to Manitou, Quetzalcoatl, Coatlicue, Vishnu, and many others in other parts of the world.

Most of these religions did little to improve the conditions of living for human beings and the welfare of society. Instead, many have lead - directly or indirectly - to an incredible amount of bloodshed, human sacrifice, fighting, humiliation, and misery.

Although most people - having little or no historical knowledge - would think differently, this is especially true of the history of the Church and Christianity, and includes their present influence on society and human life.

In my opinion, everything in Christ astonishes me. His spirit overawes me, and his will confounds me. Between him and whoever else in the world, there is no possible term of comparison. He is truly a being by himself...I search in vain in history to find the similar to Jesus Christ, or anything which can approach the gospel. Neither history, nor humanity, nor the ages, nor nature, offer me anything with which I am able to compare it or to explain it. Here everything is extraordinary.

NO matter the Christianity or the Islam. There is only one God. It supposes our father God.

God is powerful and kindly, certainly, no revolution that has ever taken place in society can be compared to that which has been produced by the words of Jesus Christ.
