There is no single view of how any of the religions - jewish, christian or islam is viewed, administered or followed. The bible belt in America is probably more akin to Saudi fundametalists than anything in common with the christians in Bethlehem.
The religions aint the problem, it's the ppl that let it down.
I always find it funny that God is almighty and all powerful, yet the most fundamentalist at their core act like He's constantly under threat and that somehow their fcked up insecure ideology is only being done to protect what He wants
And doing so in such a destructive and oppressive way which completely goes against what He wants.
