    I should share that I believe there is hope. While "Christians" have caused more than enough violence and war, I believe that there is a God who through Jesus Christ changes human nature. It has not always been seen in "Christians", but if you look at some of the great Christians through the centuries it can be seen. They have also influenced nonchristians, like Gandhi. It was Jesus Christ who said "turn the other cheek".
