Notes

Working class roots: "This is because it appears that Christians, especially early on in the movement, came  for the most part from the lower, uneducated classes. " [1]

" In the Gospel accounts, we find that  most  of  Jesus's  disciples  are  simple  peasants  from  Galilee—unedu­  cated fishermen, for  example. " [2]

"As we move into the  second  Christian  century,  things  do  not  seem  to change  much.  As I  have  indicated,  some  intellectuals  converted  to  the  faith,  but  most  Christians were from the lower classes and uneducated." [3]
