They actually believed that not being a Christian was a sin. They also believed that sin could be inherited, and so ALL the Jews had inherited deadly sin from when Jesus was crucified.
Ironically, evidence today tell us that Jesus Christ is a made up character, the church created to make Christianity more personal and easier to understand.
Which explains the complete lack of reliable historical evidence for the existence of a person that if the stories were true, would be the most important person ever.
But instead all we have is from "Christian scripture" which is nothing more than hear say by anonymous authors, and then some pretty obviously falsified history books.
Nothing of the "ancient remains" owned by the catholic church has stood up to scrutiny. Also the search for evidence of the existence of Jesus Christ, is by far and without comparison the most persistent longest ongoing archaeologic search that has ever been undertaken, when the searches of all Cristian institutions like for instance the Catholic Church and the Mormon Church and even government institutions in medieval times are combined. 2000 years of searching, and no evidence for the existence of Jesus Christ has been found!
Occam's Razor clearly dedicates that the logical conclusion is that he never existed as a real person, but is as made up as Harry Potter.
