Obviously. I mean, there used to be so few, it was legal to go on the Crusades.

Michel, will you ever learn that Catholicism and Christianity are not separate religions? I find it very strange that you don't realize that. Orthodox Judaism is not separate from Judaism, so why would Catholicism and Christianity be different?

And, about the Crusades, that was the time of forced religion (namely, forced Christianity) so it was very difficult to be unreligious.

I realize the Catholicism and Christianity are similar, but not the same. You see, they are different in many ways, but still close. Catholicism is lead by a Pope, whereas Christianity isn't. There, one difference. Thus if there is at least one difference, they cannot be the same.

No, they're not the same. Catholicism is a subset of Christianity. If you are Catholic, then you are Christian, but if you are Christian, you are not necessarily Catholic.

If you are Catholic, you are Catholic. Does that sound like Christian to you?

If you are Catholic, you are Catholic and you are Christian.

That's right. You see, you never said and. That is true, that if you are Catholic, you are considered both. But if you are Catholic, you are not Christian, you are Catholic.

Yes, I agree with you. But if you are Catholic, you are not Christian, you are Catholic and Christian.

No, technically it is not. That's why what's going on in Darfur is still happening.
