7 love this quote,as i speak im sure for myself and a few others on this thread,how we actually agree with this following quote about pagan christianity of which we have already addressed is not what we believe in,but heck,thanks for underlining papal teaching again for us all
" Democracy had given a big thumbs-up to JEHOVAH, and he was very willing to return the favor. The Church and the State have been best buddies ever since. (Particularly in Vatican City, where the Church is the State.) This alliance gave Christianity a huge boost, particularly when it came to obliterating other religions via invasion, persecution or — if all else failed — war.
Christianity was a huge success. At least, for the Christians. Other cultures had a tendency to shrivel up and die when JEHOVAH arrived at the door. Like a sponge, Christianity absorbed pagan religions and stole all the best bits. For example, Easter (Saxon) and Christmas (Germanic and/or Roman). Local Gods were demoted to the level of Saints, Angels or — in really difficult cases — Demons. (See CROM-CRUAICH, SHEELA-NA-GIG, PAN, EOSTRE...)
How times have changed since the bad old days of unpronounceable YHWH and the Public Relations disasters of MOSES. Thanks to the JESUS factor, JEHOVAH is accessible, friendly, and suitable for all members of the family. A bit like a Disney movie really"
