Christianity

             The Christian religion, like all other religions has its strengths and
             weaknesses in our modern society. Perhaps the strengths out weight the
             weaknesses as this is one of the largest religions in the world. Hundreds of
             people follow the Catholic/Christian religion yet still a greater number follow
             yet other religions. Perhaps this is because they see the weaknesses or perhaps
             it is simply because their parents have taught them that it is a sin to follow
             The Christian religions do however present much more of an appealing atmosphere

             goes on, Christianity is slowly evolving and trying to become even more
             appealing to society, there are still many downfalls. One thing with
             Christianity is that from day one we are given a guilt trip. We are born evil.
             We are born with "the original sin". We are at the mercy of God. If we beg
