Read foxes book of martyrs. Modern day martyrs exist too. How do people sing hymns in complete peace while being burned alive or boiled in oil? Because paul and jesus were like yo, lets control people bro. You know paul was in prison when he penned philippians? And he said he couldnt be happier because he was able to tell prisoners and prison guards about jesus. You know it's funny. Athiest always want mountains of evidence when it comes to proving jesus, but dont provide a shred of evidence for macro evolution besides some finches with different sized beaks. No, evolution holds true on blind faith alone.
I expect you would enjoy a vacation here sometime when you can. Fasinating! great theater of Ephesus The Muslims there enjoy telling of Paul and how they even jailed him. http://www.biblestudy.org/biblepic/ephesus-apostle-paul-missionary-journeys.html
