text: I agree, and thumbs up, but the radical Middle Eastern mystic, I assume you mean Jesus of Nazareth, didn't start Christianity. Jesus didn't worship himself.
  His followers founded Christianity. Especially a convert named Paul of Tarsus. And Paul took Christianity in a totally different direction. Christianity changed again when Emperor Constantine saw political advantage in using Christianity. I think Donald Trump would appreciate Constantine. Constantine was a masterful politician who embraced Christianity as a state religion, but Constantine never converted to Christianity until he was on his deathbed, as a last minute insurance policy, just in case. Donald Trump is alleged to have become "born again", right before the Republican National Convention. As a last minute insurance policy, just in case.
