The Holocaust
The Holocaust started due to the passive and active perpetrators that held deep feelings of animosity toward Jews. Ingrained by almost 2000 years of antisemitism in Christian teachings‚ this made the Jews receptive to the message of the Nazis, and which made the idea of eliminating Jews, even through extermination, reasonable and indeed desirable. The Nazi party blamed Germany's troubles following WWI on the Jews. The Jews began losing their rights and ability to defend themselves legally. Eventually, the greater mistreatment began with the implementation of concentration camps and ghettos and the final moving to death camps and of course, mass genocide. Many Jews were not able to escape to the US either because of immigration laws, which blocked their entry. This resulted in the massive losses to the Jewish people. Losses that reached over seven million deaths.
The most likely way to prevent a situation like the Holocaust is to become a more active society that is not afraid to come to the aid of another.

1. Christianity was formed by Jewish traditions and with the new following of the leader Jesus Christ. The Graeco-Roman world that it was formed in was conducive to travel and the indoctrination of the Roman emperor was key to its spread.
2. Jesus failed to fulfill the role as Messiah by not bringing the end of the world and the judgement of all people for their sins.
3. Baptism and Communion.
4. The Gospels were written up to several decades after the death of Christ, the first section to be written of the new testament is the Galatians or Thessalonians.
5. Constantine was essential to Christianity's survival because it created a new headquarters during the fall of the Roman empire and the practitioners a safe place of haven.
6. Eastern Orthodox Christianity differs in belief from western Christianity in the area of original sin and ancestral sin and the immaculate conception of Mary.
7. Indulgences,
8. Baptism, Communion, Confirmation, Holy Orders, Matrimony, Last Rites, Reconciliation.
9. Vatican II was a great sequel to Vatican I, and had several difference that I cannot remember.
10. Liberation theology is a concept that involves a different interpretation of Christianity to create a new set of beliefs and are both fundamentally different and also similar to Roman Catholicism.
