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]
