Evangelicals are partly to blame for the collapse of Middle Eastern Christianity. They are the biggest supporter of wars which destroy Christians. But it goes way deeper than that. They view Christians like Assyrians in Iraq as a pawn to expand their footprint as "authentic" Christians. They can be so brazen that they even set up local organizations & try to convert *Apostolic Christians* to *their* brand of American Christianity. Imagine destroying an Apostolic, Aramaic speaking Christian community which is 2000 years old. Then setting up an NGO to convert them to Megachurch Protestantism through bribery & handouts. Isn't that insane?

In 1004, a Byzantine princess ate with a fork at her wedding feast in Venice The clergy condemned her Not her marriage, or politics The fork... Cardinal Pietro Damiani wrote that lifting food on a golden instrument; rather than fingers given by God, was an act of decadence bordering on corruption When she died of the plague two years later, they called it divine judgment Europe took the lesson seriously For the next 400 years, the fork was a symbol of devil worship, Byzantine corruption, and moral collapse It did not reach common households in northern Europe until the 17th century 600 years of resistance To a fork... You eat with one 3 times a day

Every bank account on earth descends from a single institution built in Amsterdam in 1609 The city was drowning in currency chaos Over 800 foreign coin types circulated in the Republic, each debased to a different degree The solution: a public bank where merchants deposited coins of any origin and received back a single standardised credit For the first time in history, you could pay a debt by transferring a number rather than handing over metal That idea; the account balance, has never been replaced The infrastructure of your finances was built in a Dutch counting house four hundred years ago
