Does nothing inherent in Christianity about supporting Israel. America was always Christian and didn’t care about evicting Palestinians until the 20th century. Christian Zionism is a relatively recent phenomenon.

@Leo Gura Just watched that Christian history video, it was informative, thanks for sharing. 

I have one question, what do Christians mean with Father, Son and Holy Spirit. In your understanding, what was the original idea behind those? Why are they making those distinctions? Well, Holy Spirit sounds like what you call Consciousness, but what about Father and Son? Also they say all three are God, then they say that Jesus is God (son) but his father is also God, gets messy real quck, and historically those distinctions caused disagreements and branching off into countless denominations.

Father = Infinity

Son = Jesus the human

Holy Spirit is not Consciousness. Christians believed that God has a spirit, similar to how humans can have spirits. Holy Spirit is like a ghost of God. It's a weird invention which has no correlate in my work.

Christians have never understood what God is, so they invent all sorts of silly things.
