Actually, that's one of the problems I see with Christianity. The Bible tells you that if you are a good Christian you will be rewarded in the Afterlife. It tells you to just take all the crap that the Man hands down and not to get up and fight for your rights, because in most cases that would be considered sinful. You should just sit back and feel happy that you'll be rewarded in Heaven. That makes it really easy for people to be downtrodden and oppressed. I don't think that this was the original intent of Jesus, or Christianity, but it was corrupted by all the powerful clergy and royalty that translated the Bible in the Middle Ages.
