Also, it's not an issue of "Christians" here... People from all over the world are manipulating history and basically questioning the accuracy of historical accounts, or simply "forgetting" to include certain accounts within their own research, all in an effort to push their agenda, which can include the advancement of one social or religious group over another. The best recent example I can think of is Ahmadinejad saying that the Holocaust did not happen.

Regardless if one is Atheist, Christian, Jew, Muslim, White, Black, Green... this is a serious and often overlooked problem that has powerful consequences. After all, these "historians" are the same people that write the books my children will be studying from. This is why it's so important to study things with the use of primary sources.

Best post in this thread!
