What a disgusting guilt by association post.

Jim Jones’ religion was communism. I see you have bought the MSM spin that his was somehow a Christian movement.

A side of ignorance to go with your vituperous main course.

If you look closely at my post you will note that your reply was a given, not you specifically, but it was expected.

In 1956, The Peoples Temple was founded in Indianapolis as an integrated church combining evangelical, enthusiastic religion and loosely socialist politics. Jim Jones, the founder and pastor of the church, preformed healings which attracted many members. The congregation was predominately black.

Like it or not, religion was used to facilitate that massacre. Guilt by association my ass!

while i believe you went a bit far, pox, your points remain mostly valid.
religion, all of them, have been plagued by those who use it as a means of gain through the suffering of others.
the moral high ground is but a dune about to be swallowed by the incoming tide.
