There is no doubt in my mind christianity (which should really
be called Paulianity) got started on baldfaced lies and the lies

also todays modern message says GOD has a wonderful plan for your life so give your life to JESUS and everything will be ok.So they accept JESUS for awhile but the fisrt sign of trial or something goes wrong in their life,they fall away from the faith.Because they feel lied to and deceived because they were promised a better life and all they got was trails and tribulation
