No. This was written by an unknown author for the periodical The Virginian in 1956. Commenting on Patrick Henry's famous "bequest" of Christianity in his will, The Virginianeditorialized:
There is an insidious campaign of false Propaganda being waged today, to the effect that our country is not a Christian country but a religious one-that it was not founded on Christianity but on freedom of religion.
It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by 'religionists' but by Christians-not on religion but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason, peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity and freedom of worship here.
In the spoken and written words of our noble founders and forefathers, we find symbolic expressions of their Christian faith. The above quotation from the will of Patrick Henry is a notable example.
Henry's will was quoted in The Virginian as:
I have now disposed of all my property to my family. There is one thing more I wish I could give them, and that is the Christian Religion. If they had that and I had not given them one shilling they would have been rich; and if they had not that and I had given them all the world, they would be poor.
The bequest is more usually quoted this way:
This is all the inheritance I can give my dear family. The religion of Christ can give them one which will make them rich indeed.
In any case Patrick Henry never wrote the "religionists" quotation--he couldn't have. Both the language and history are wrong. A "religionist" in Patrick Henry's time was a person obsessed with religion, not a religious person, and "peoples of other faiths" would not be "afforded asylum, prosperity and freedom of worship here" until after Henry's time.
Everywhere, there are Christians all around the world, from every race and every nation. They live basically anywhere a normal person would live.Christians live in cities, rural areas in all parts of the world.
Jerusalem and the area surrounding it was the area in which three major religions came into being; Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. Therefore, all groups feel like the area is rightfully theirs. Because of this all groups feel very strongly and emotionally about the land.
This depends quite strongly on who was being conquered, but usually it resulted in large percentages of the population being enslaved and brought to Egypt to work. It also resulted in a change of local customs and religions to match Egyptian norms.
AnswerThe second-century Roman historian, Tacitus, was not a Christian. His strongly held republican views led him to take a harsh and generally biased view of the Roman emperors who had preced him. He was often a critic of Nero, although he does say of Nero that "his pledges were not dishonoured, and many [unpopular] decisions were made by the Senate itself". It was Tacitus who claimed that Nero punished the Christians of Rome unfairly for the Great Fire of Rome.
Benjamin Franklin was strongly influenced by the American Enlightenment.

All religions. Stalin was atheist and strongly opposed religions.
Christians strongly believe that their religion is the one true religion. Some have difficulty accepting that followers of other religions believe just as strongly that their own religion is the true religion. There may even be a sense for some Christians that it is in some way irrational for others not to convert readily to Christianity, when told what Christians believe.Some Christians also believe that they have a duty to convert followers of all other religions, to Christianity. Finally, it is a requirement among certain minor Christian sects and denominations for young adults to spend up to two years attempting to convert others.

This Question is potentially broader than religion but, since it has been categorised in part as a religious Question, I will give that perspective. Certain religions are known as 'proselytising' religions and strongly encourage their followers to convert others to that religion. So, Christians believe that they have a duty to convert followers of all other religions, to Christianity, while Muslims believe that they have a duty to convert followers of all other religions, to Islam. Judaism was once seen as a proselytising religion, but less so now. Many Christians strongly believe that their religion is the one true religion and, for some, there may even be a sense that it is in some way irrational for others not to convert readily to Christianity, when told what Christians believe. Also, it is a requirement among certain minor Christian sects and denominations for young adults to spend up to two years attempting to convert others.

The egocentrism of preschoolers is most strongly emphasized by their inability to understand other people's perspectives and viewpoints. They tend to believe that everyone sees things the way they do and struggle to grasp that others may have different thoughts or feelings. This egocentric thinking is a normal part of their cognitive development and tends to decrease as they grow older.
Most Christians are fine with it. Some Christian churches notably the catholic church are strongly opposed along with their more devout followers
