is the faith of illiterate superstitious peasant Christians around the time of Jesus different to christians of today?
A little presumptuous and arrogant there, aren't we? People of the time were not stupid idiots,witness the Roman empire, Commerce existed across nations. Jews studied the scripture. Jesus as a child discussed the sacred Jewish texts.
People in the Middle East were not largely peasants, illiterate and superstitious types, ..around the time of Jesus?
-Bulletproof and Waterproof don't mean Idiotproof.
