Thanks for clearing that up, FeeBear. I kind of feel silly now, because I see what you were getting at.
I agree that throughout history religion hasn't been tolerant to anyone. Thank God we've reached a point where people are allowed to believe whatever they want, whenever they want, and no one will force them to believe otherwise.
That's just one of the many things I find wrong with modern organized religions (warning: more contriversial statements ahead) but do you think Christ would have wanted his followers to go around and kill those that wouldn't believe in him?
Just as a side note, did you know the Roman Catholic Church is actually the first form of Protestantism? Yes that's right, during the Great Schism (1300s), the Church Of Rome broke away from the Orthodox Church, which, by the way, some still consider the Orthodoxy to be the only true Church of Christ on Earth. The Great Schism was caused from wording of the Latin Nicene Creed: filioque.
