John Booth RE Coursework 8/2/01
Was it easier to be a disciple then than now?
There are two sides to this argument. I think that most people think that it was harder
to be a disciple then because more brutal things were done to people in those days.
There was a greater chance of laying down their lives for their faith than today.
eg.crucifixion was a common way to put people to death in those days.
Today people don't really follow their own beliefs, they just believe what
everybody else does. This has led to a massive number of people who claim to have
faith but don't practise it. Many people say that they are Catholic or Church of
England when really they are more like pagans. Most people don't go to church
