yes, that is exactly my point, it can be useful, but I think your implication was that the religion of christianity stole its use, rather than coincided with. As I said before, my birthday often falls on the celebration of MLK's birthday, but am I borrowing or stealing from the good Dr King?

Oh! Jesus is the Light of the World?
In that case that makes sense, but, is it in the bible? I don't recall.
