text: do christian hate others  because the cross is a curse and they cross themselves to keep the curse? the cult of the cross began as a curse in 312ce after emperor constantine of rome claimed he had a dream of a fiery cross in the sky with the words "by this sign thou shalt conquer" written below.  immediately, constantine ordered that the monogram  of the cross be displayed on the shields of his soldiers who were victorious in the following day's battle, which was accredited  to the cross.  in 325ce constantine convened and directed the first council of nicea in which he gave birth to the bible and the roman christian church and the cult of the sign of the cross.  why should christians maliciously deny others their freedom of worship and expression with false reporting of breach of community guidelines in religion and spirituality on yahoo! 7 answers.  christians feign innocence and practise discrimination and oppression with trivial and vexatious and pointless reporting in violation of community guidelines because of their ignorance of facts and inability to answer sensibly. wow, now that was actually worth a read. as a pagan i am very familiar with the truth of the treacherous constantine understand your feelings.  i'm not sure about the cross curse, i've never heard of that before. but yes i'm sick of seeing genuine questions being answered by "turn to god, he will save you" and a bunch of hypocritical ranting, by fools who have no real understanding of the religion in which they have based their entire lives and judge us by.  but the sad thing is, no matter what you say or the proof that you have, they will never believe listen. it's like smashing your head against a brick wall.
