Every single bit of progress in humane feeling, every improvement in the criminal law, every step towards better treatment of the colored races, or every mitigation of slavery... Has been consistently opposed by the organized churches of the world. I say quite deliberately that the Christian religion, as organized in its churches, has been and still is the principal enemy of moral progress in the world
-Bertrand Russell
If ever people do decide to examine the history of the Christian religion people would realize that in almost every social issue the church has always been consistently against progress they were for slavery, against woman’s rights, against science medicine and proper education.
It is starling to see that so many people have forgotten the exploits of the church century’s back. The crusades where hundreds of thousands of people were killed including their own soldiers which were sometimes made up of children because the pope wanted a piece of land back. The inquisition which lasted for 500 years is where they killed and tortured anyone who was not with the Roman Catholic Church. The witch trials which was started by the Catholics and was perfected by the protestants where they burned women who they accused of being witches children as young as 5 were burned to death because of this movement. So please before you say Jesus or the Christian religion is good for society and promotes peace please look back at the history of this very deceiving religion.
