The Book of Revelations says this world
takeover is the point of the One World Religion - and the One World
Economy. The idea is to draw a line, either one is for Christ or against
him.

Christianity did not attempt to
conquer the world. It is important to avoid confusing the religion with its
practitioners. They are two different things. Christians, or at least
people who called themselves Christians, attempted to conquer the world.
Personally, I think they're not real Christians. Real Christians follow
Jesus, not Christianity. What we call Christianity is really Paulism. It's
not what jesus practiced. It's not what Jesus taught. Jesus himself was
adamantly opposed to imperialism. This is why the Roman empire executed
him.
Protestants tried just as hard, if not harder, to conquer the
world as did Catholics. Ask any Indonesian or any Native North American.
Ask some Hawaiians. Ask some Irish. In the New World at especially the
Protestants were far, far crueler than Catholics. The Spanish enslaved the
Natives. The English tried their level best to exterminate
them.
That, of course, does not excuse the ongoing ambitions of the
Vatican, far from it. It's a major world power. It's no better than the
rest of the major world powers, especially when it comes to the money. But
we must take care to distinguish the Vatican from the Church, the Church
from the religion, and all three from the practitioners. Otherwise, we will
end up condemning a fifth of humanity for the deeds of a few hundred.
There's a world of difference between the Calvis, the Gellis and the
Sindonas of this world and the folks who cook lunch at the Martin de Porres
soup kitchens.
