'''Mark''', also known as John Mark, was, of course, a Christian <ref>[[Ignorance]]</ref> and was the author of the second Gospel, the [[Gospel of Mark]].  Written in [[Greek]] for a [[Christian]] audience, and using terms that were meaningless to non-believers (so true believers would only interpret what they wanted to interpret), Mark’s Gospel is a mixture of theology, history, and [[propaganda]].  It is written in a simple, forceful style, which hid the fact that it encouraged stupidity and self-deceit. Interestingly enough, self-deceit is referred to as 'faith' and actually has a positive connotation among most Christians. They thoroughly enjoy convincing themselves that their god exists when there is little to no evidence of his existance. They feel quite comforted that they'll go to a better place when they die in the holy wars that their religion created.

Mark himself accompanied [[Paul]] and [[Barnabas]], his cousin, on their missionary journey.<ref>convincing people to stop thinking for themselves</ref>  Mark’s unexplained departure from that trip at Perga caused a later split between Paul and Barnabas, when Paul refused to take Mark on the second mission.  Barnabas, in loyalty to his cousin Mark, broke off his relationship with Paul and traveled with Mark instead to Cyprus.<ref>Acts 15:36-39</ref>  Later Paul and Mark were reunited and went on an additional trip together.

Mark was close to the older [[Peter]], who once described Mark as "my son."<ref>incest</ref>.  Mark likely acted as an interpreter for Peter and the Gospel According to Mark is often considered to be Peter’s Gospel as transcribed by Mark.

To the administrators of this site, how strong is your faith <ref>self-deceit</ref> if you completely disregard what I say? Are you so afraid that my argument might sway your view of god that you won't take what I say into consideration? Please message me so that we can have a coherent theological discussion.

By the way, if wikipedia is edited by the population of the U.S., does that mean the population of the U.S. has a liberal bias? Your site has a laughably stronger bias than wikipedia. Hypocrisy is just as sickening when you display it as when anyone else displays it.
