Relationships between
Christianity & other religions

Sponsored link.

Many religions have had a difficult time
tolerating other faiths. This is particularly true with Christianity in
western Europe. Two of the worse examples of inter-religious hatred and
persecution have been:
 |
Anti-Semitic teachings and prosecutions over many centuries
which directly caused the murder of hundreds of thousands of
innocent Jews. They indirectly laid the foundation for the Nazi
holocaust and the loss of 6 million Jewish lives. |
 |
A religious genocide conducted during the 15th to 18th
centuries. Tens of thousands of innocent people who were believed to
be Witches or other heretics, were located, tortured, and burned
alive. (After the Reformation, Protestants continued the Witch hunt,
but they preferred to hang the innocent victims rather than burn
them alive.) |
Religiously motivated wars, genocides,
and civil unrest
continue today,
largely among Christians, Muslims and Jews. There is a critical need
for both international, national, and local agencies that promote
Christian-Muslim-Jewish cooperation and understanding. They are notable
by their
near absence.
In the U.S. there have been attempts by Congressional leaders and conservative Christian groups to
terminate the
religious freedoms of some non-Christians in the military.
