I find it uncomfortable to discuss my person beliefs with others. We may in the end only be describing with different words the same concepts.

Will say it is a belief of mine that financial gain over works was and still is a problem with religions. Then there is still my God is the ONLY real God, yours is the fake one. Then problem is everyone feels that way. More then a few lives have been lost due to the march of religions across the planet.

Is this because of the inner doubts to their beliefs. Questioning when confronted with another points of viewing the unknown. Causing the conflicts and then lashing out to eliminate any threat to their beliefs.
Or again financial gains.
Both in the end would be my guess.

Jesus of Nazareth's message is very straightforward: We're all in this together so let's help each other out.

If God created the Universe, who created God?

The egg. A chicken is an egg's way of making another egg.
