Everything bad in the world is because of Christianity, according to Paul Kivel, a lecturer at the 2016 White Privilege Conference, in Philadelphia. He made the preposterous statement that every dysfunction found in society, from sexism to racism, a weak economy and global warming is all because of what he labels as “Christian hegemony”.
Kivel’s book and website define Christian hegemony as “a system of domination is complex, shifting, and operates through the agency of individuals, families, church communities, denominations, parachurch organizations, civil institutions, and through decisions made by members of the ruling class and power elite.”
Kivel ignores the truth found throughout history that women, slaves, children, and gladiators were consistently viewed as property and without value in most cultures. However, Jesus changed the message in first century Rome, putting into place the idea that equality and human rights are from God and come by virtue of being made in the image of God. Without this “evil” biblical principle, Kivel seems to believe that society would be better.

WHAT BRAND OF STUPID IS THIS WHAT PLANET ARE THEY ON????!!
This makes me sick. Those idiots .
Jon Evans…the fool says in his heart there is no God.
Don’t like being called a fool? Take it up with God…it is He that is calling you the fool. God is immutable!
Kelly Miller…the kjv ad compiled would have numerous differences…these are two different translations. Take any Bible translation and compare it to 2 to 4 thousand year old documents and you will find consistent descriptions of events and places. Archeological finds are repeatedly validating both the old and new testaments. Sorry to rain on your meme!
Christianity sets morals and rules for living. Without the rules and morals, everything would be permissable, which means nothing would be wrong. That would inclued murder, rapes and the worst things the wicked mind could dream up. Even people like Paul Kivel would be a righteous man if nothing is unrighteous. Without Christianity and the Bible there would be no difference in good and bad. We are already living in a world where good is considered bad and bad is considered good.
No, Liberals are responsible for most of the bad!!!!
