If you have Netflix or Showtime this series is a good reference. I watch a lot of historical dramas because I love history. After watching, I also research the facts vs the Hollywood version.
Borgias Family This really shows how power hungry they were.

I don’t disagree if stones are to be thrown we should also look at Protestant “evangelist” or preachers. We might only see the big corporate churches and TV preachers today. It was going on long ago. Traveling preachers setting up a tent for revival. I don’t have have proof and haven’t researched this subject. I personally feel many human beings get greedy when they start getting money. I’ve heard all my life to tithe ten percent. I don’t but I know many that firmly hold to that for a lifetime. So many people support Christian charities, missions & missionaries. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard give extra for this and that. I’m not saying all charities are crooked! I never give money if I don’t know where it’s going and who’s handling the books. I’d rather pick a few down and out people and help them with what they need. I don’t mean to imply my way is right. It works for me.
