[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When missionaries began traveling around the world to spread the word of Christ, why did those people abandon their gods? In many countries you were executed for being Christian, yet why was it so appealing? My theory is that the poor had to work the lands of their masters and had no pleasures or means to move up in their present world. If you were born poor, you remain poor and so does the rest of your family. So when Christians promised a paradise in heaven, this was more appealing than living their hell on earth. [/quote] And it worked out well for the masters too -- they could mistreat their servants knowing they wouldn't bother to try to make their lives better here on earth, when they had an eternity of bliss waiting for them. Sort of what the radical muslim suicide bombers do.[/quote]
