I stopped for a while to catch my breathe after I finished with my mini-lecture on Chinese history.
Then, I began again, "You know, the best example of history being written by the victors is, unfortunately, the story of Christianity."
"Oh..." Vivian certainly thought I touched a sensitive area.
"My dear, I'm serious." I went on, "Even if we consider the Protestant a branch from the Roman Catholic Church, the latter is not the only descendant of Jesus Christ and the Twelve Apostles - we have the Orthodox..."
The sobering truth is, although I studied in Catholic schools for 12 years and did take formal bible class, I'd not heard of the Great Schism before I graduated from medical school.
