Nothing gets the charlatans riled up like a little honesty and accountability.<br /><br />On a side note, have you read The Myth of Persecution by Candida Moss? I'm about 2/3 through it and it's pretty fascinating and very well researched - traces the myth of Christian persecution through its origins (esp. with Eusebius) and exposes how that us vs. them rhetoric is a political device that is still used today to feed the fears of the uninformed in order to promote an agenda. I think you'd like it if you haven't read it yet.<br /><br />Here's a link: http://www.amazon.com/Myth-Persecution-Christians-Invented-Martyrdom-ebook/dp/B0089LOOF4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1411078003&sr=8-1&keywords=the+myth+of+persecutionAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05362339037879270082noreply@blogger.com
