Hi Chaim,
Thank you for addressing my comment. Regarding 2 Thessalonians: As christians we believe that we are judged on judgement day not when we die. We believe when Jesus comes again then it will be obvious that he is the Messiah and all righteous people will accept the gospel. So christians are not saying if you don't believe in the gospel at this moment in time then you will go to hell. Also, another explanation is that the gospel of Jesus really boils down to 2 principles: 1) love God with all your soul and 2) love thy neighbor as yourself, which I believe originally comes from the Torah (Leviticus 19:9-18). If you believe in this, guess what? You believe in the "gospel of Jesus."
Also, who in their right mind would defend the crusades? Did you know that the crusader bastards also murdered tens of thousands of Byzantine Greek orthodox christians? What they did is no more "Christian" then what the Jews did with the golden calf is "Jewish." Did Jesus ever condone killing anyone? Reading about the life of Jesus how can anyone think he would condone killing Jews or anyone else? We're not talking about Muhammad here. What the popes, crusaders, inquisitors, hitler (yimach shmo) etc did is so obviously not what Jesus wants. I follow God. I don't follow a pope...especially this one. I can take up the other items you mentioned but I don't want to hog your time Chaim. And again please don't take this in an adversareal way. I just think it's important that the folks don't mistaken true christianity with bogus christianity.
