How did the rich Christian nations like those in Europe become rich? They plundered the world. So Christians like Everton should not say it is because God bless them.

How did the rich Arab countries become rich? Because God gives them the resource to be rich, oil.

We must also know that the riches God gives them is a test. Maybe the Muslims are failing that test and that is why we are in such a sorry state today.

To set the record straight, there is not a single country in Africa where Christianity is the official religion.

Is it ? The last time when there was a "misundertanding" between the (converted aka brain washed) South America Indians and the Spanish Jesuits, the later turn them into slave. 
I am not surprised chatbot cheekopekman is still full of bugs and lies leh... Big Grin

...a Catholic order that traveled the world in their mission of "education and evangelization", proved enormously useful to the European powers. Their strategy to pacify and subjugate the indigenous population included the forced recruitment of indigenous labor (Slavery) and the instruction and conversion of native people (Cultural Genocide) in Jesuit-controlled Indian villages, called aldeias.

By the way, the US is NOT a Christian country. It is a secular nation.

The Crusaders were mercenaries and "Christians" only in name because they did not act based on their faith since they often resorted to brutal actions that contradicted Christian tenets. It is like referring to Islamic terrorists as Muslims.

You know who started the crusades? It's the pope himself. 

And in case you want to mention that he didn't order the killing then let me quote "In 1198, Pope Innocent III began the Fourth Crusade. He ordered Jews to wear badges to identify themselves, and then ordered them to be killed to atone for Jesus' death."

Is the pope a mercenary?

Reconquista (722–1492)
The Crusades were a series of religious wars initiated, supported, and sometimes directed by the Christian Latin Church in the medieval period. The best known of these military expeditions are those to the Holy Land in the period between 1095 and 1291 that had the objective of reconquering Jerusalem and its surrounding area from Muslim rule after the region had been conquered by the Rashidun Caliphate centuries earlier. Beginning with the First Crusade, which resulted in the conquest of Jerusalem in 1099, dozens of military campaigns were organised, providing a focal point of European history for centuries. Crusading declined rapidly after the 15th century.
In 1095, after a Byzantine request for aid,[1] Pope Urban II proclaimed the first expedition at the Council of Clermont. He encouraged military support for Byzantine emperor Alexios I Komnenos and called for an armed pilgrimage to Jerusalem. Across all social strata in Western Europe, there was an enthusiastic response. Participants came from all over Europe and had a variety of motivations. These included religious salvation, satisfying feudal obligations, opportunities for renown, and economic or political advantage. Later expeditions were conducted by generally more organised armies, sometimes led by a king. All were granted papal indulgences. Initial successes established four Crusader states: the County of Edessa; the Principality of Antioch; the Kingdom of Jerusalem; and the County of Tripoli. A European presence remained in the region in some form until the fall of Acre in 1291. After this, no furtherlarge military campaigns were organised.
Other church-sanctioned campaigns include crusades against Christians not obeying papal rulings and heretics, those against the Ottoman Empire, and ones for political reasons. The struggle against the Moors in the Iberian Peninsula–the Reconquistaended in 1492 with the Fall of Granada. From 1147, the Northern Crusades were fought against pagan tribes in Northern Europe. Crusades against Christians began with the Albigensian Crusade in the 13th century and continued through the Hussite Wars in the early 15th century. Crusades against the Ottomans began in the late 14th century and include the Crusade of VarnaPopular crusades, including the Children's Crusade of 1212, were generated by the masses and were unsanctioned by the Church.
