But for a little bit of information. All Christian religions were derived from what is called the Catholic religion now. Thus, they were the original Christians. All other Christian faiths are a derivative of the belief that is labeled Catholic. I'm not sure of the split of Luther and protestants. Nor the Morman's modern era prophet deal. Christianity is the belief that someone died for your unworthiness to be with God. So all that believe that Christ is the savior are Christians.Be it Jahovah's witness or any host of theoracracies. About the Native American tragedy. It is correct that they were sold on the idea of Christianity. Though those that preach the religion are also the ones that betrayed the nation of the original inhabitants. Betrayal and judgement based on origins was a sorrowful thing. Though, our government was based on the five nations co-operative that was in the northern region.(Native American Government of a weak Central government, where most of the powers layewd in the states) All I can say is that I believe that those that betrayed the native american people were of us European origin ancestors.(If they tried to blend in and did well. Jealousy, greed and self-superiority beliefs would cause betrayal to those that tried to blend with the European ideals) What happened in Europe, I could not answer. But it is evident to me that due to the devisive nature of Christians divided upon what is Christianity should make it evident that there is a drastic and scary mind control of the followers of the faith. Maybe a search for the truth on a co-operative nature might help Christians discover what Christianity is.
