Everything bad in the world is because of Christianity, according to Paul Kivel, a lecturer at the 2016 White Privilege Conference, in Philadelphia. He made the preposterous statement that every dysfunction found in society, from sexism to racism, a weak economy and global warming is all because of what he labels as “Christian hegemony”.
Kivel’s book and website define Christian hegemony as “a system of domination is complex, shifting, and operates through the agency of individuals, families, church communities, denominations, parachurch organizations, civil institutions, and through decisions made by members of the ruling class and power elite.”
Kivel ignores the truth found throughout history that women, slaves, children, and gladiators were consistently viewed as property and without value in most cultures. However, Jesus changed the message in first century Rome, putting into place the idea that equality and human rights are from God and come by virtue of being made in the image of God. Without this “evil” biblical principle, Kivel seems to believe that society would be better.

Read it for your self !!!!
Is this fool getting paid to push this rediculous bs?
Jon Evans if you actually read the bible and understand Gods laws you’d have a different out look. God gives each one of us a choice to love him trust him to serve him or not. There are a lot of crazies out there doing things in the name of Christianity who will never make it to heaven. Read all parts of the bible learn it then come at me with the garbage you began with.
such bs!!
And you democratic liberals want to let Muslims bring in there Sharia law ??? Then they can legally rape and murder anyone that’s not a Muslim, read it and that’s not all of it !!!!!
Pardon?
Islam is———–check your history.
Whatta numnutzz….
Not islam with forcing women to be sex slaves even girls young as 7 and of course chopping off heads and burning people alive! That gets a pass! You are one stupid idiot! You need to be fired!
God in the bible is to love? You mean demand a blood sacrifice and smote all who doubt him? Oh by the way, you’re all going to hell for wearing clothes of more than one fabric. Old testament is also part of your bible, a book edited after writing down generations of oral traditions and re edited to fit the approval of a Roman ruler who by the way was a life long pagan. And I’m sure love was the driving force behind the Spanish inquisition. Or witch hunts. Take gods love with ya as we tie you up and burn you alive.
