Christianity is a major sacred cow, not just on RIA, but throughout the world. No topic engenders more controversy than religion. Christianity is controversial because it places much emphasis on the value of faith in Jesus Christ, a person who was considered a minor rable rouser in his time. Little secondary evidence exists as evidence that he actually lived in the first place, therefore you must rely on the New Testament to verify his existance. Lo and behold, through translation and selective editing on the part of church councils over the past 2000 years, the language and message of the Bible has been somewhat changed. So therefore to an extent, you have to rely on theological arguments to support esoterical and religious claims, this is something variable on human emotion and faith rather than earthly substance and fact. It all depends on what sustains you. Personally I don't argue a lot about it nor do I really care. Many religious practices coincidentally has little to do with God at any rate. Politics, social conditions and history allowed for the rise of a bureaucracy to reach God. Marx was right in this respect; religion is used to control people, to elicit fear and in many cases promote a political agenda. You don't need this to reach God, not by a long shot. Some are sustained by church life and that's fine as well.
