Until a bunch of communists took them away, and his nice palace while they were at it. By the way, that is just the true meaning of divine justice… God likes to pit the transgressors against themselves in eternal war until they WAKE UP on out of it.

I would REALLY like to see some legit information backing up that statement. and by legit, I don't mean a link to some religious website that is focused on stirring folks up about other religions.
first of all, do you even realize that this ummm "path" you are so vehemently defending is a copycat religion? every major "myth" supporting both christianity and even judaism have firm roots in much older and actually longer lived religions.
here's some suggested reading for you.... start out with the "Epic of Gilgamesh", then pick up something on Zoroaster, then try some heavy duty reading about the religions of ancient Egypt, not just the stuff you learned in 6th grade when they taught about the pyramids.
most cultures have flood myths, dying and reborn king myths, virgin birth myths and pretty much everything else the modern christian bible is based on.
you are lecturing these fine folks about having closed minds, I dare you to do some reading outside of your comfort zone
