nope i took catechism class at lutheran church

leah will back me up on this

Really? My error then. I thought Catechism was the particular name given to the Catholic doctrine classes given to children.

Not as many people were killed as a result of the Crusades as you might think.

Catechism classes were originally from Orthodox Catholics, but other denominations can study them as well. I did them too in my Lutheran church. Here's a site that discusses it.

Why don't you enlighten us?

heh, yeah I'd like to hear that one too.

Yeah, I seem to recall, oh, say, Richard the Lionhearted, that truly "Chivalrous" king decide the was annoyed at the defenders of a city for actually not surrendering immediately, so he marched them all out in front of the town and had them slaughtered, including women & children, AFTER they had surrendered.

There is no way that happened. He was a Crusader, a noble Christian lord, blessed with a superior religion, who showered mercy and love upon his wayward enemies.

Yeah I can see your religion is sooooo much better cause wiccans and druids are such evil entities.

christianity split before luther, between east and west

the capital of the christian east was sacked by a crusade from the christian west some time later

oh yeah, Richard the Lioheart was gay, true story. Seriously.

if my memory serves me correctly, the oldest still existant form of christianity is ethiopian orthodox.. predates RC by 2-300 years
