Christians do all these things:
feeding the poor, healing the sick, sheltering the homeless, and loving your neighbors, even if they are a transsexual undocumented Muslim immigrant and a lesbian Black-Asian Buddhist."

"we know from history that Christianity remade western civilization into a better one than what the Greeks and Romans left."
We know they killed more people, too.
"I think you're reading Jonah wrong." The next time you think Jews understand our Book better than you do will be the first time. It's a pity you weren't around 3000 years ago to correct the elders.
Don't accept a God-substitute .... seek the real thing. You should follow your own advice. Try starting prayers with this for a month, and see how it works. I'd recommend you use the English
"Blessed are You, LORD our God, King of the universe..." Then say what you want to say.
