James > It is a sham how many churches and Christians have been afflicted with pride and act as demogogues.

The Christians are not unique in that regard. I would say all religions pander to the political whims of the masses. Indeed, religion is a very easy way to get to the minds of the people and thus control them. For this reason, it is attractive for conniving politicians to use religion as a means to their power -- as W & Co are doing at the moment. And which, in fact, is no different from the situation in Israel or the Islamic countries.

> Two thousand years later and man is worse off than ever. The early Church of God has been swallowed up by Pharisitical teachings

I can't argue with that.
