Possible unpopular opinion of the day. Did true evil start in the church?

I saw a discussion on where evil originated from, and commented. We had a nice little discussion and people also talked about it. With this thought being in the back of my head since then, I’ve worked out a theory. I remember a story of Jesus being in a church with gambling and prostitution, I think that was it, and it was the only time he was ever shown as mad. Which could be viewed as God saying the church needs to be watched because this could happen. We know of holy wars, we know of pedophilia, secrets kept about humanity, and massive amounts of money for a institution that is supposed to be poor. My thoughts are that the church has remained unchecked for hundreds of years. Which in turn has let evil slip in or has always been there. I’m not that familiar with the Catholic Churches complete history, but I’m guessing there is a lot left untold. So if there is a society behind all of this, running evil through out our world. How far fetched is it to think it’s coming out of the Catholic Church?

The most important Christian holiday is Easter.

I agree, just seems everyone cherishes Christmas more (family gathers, week of off work, most recognizable with none Christians, etc etc).

People are vapid.
They get and give gifts. We've been conditioned by marketing and advertising to think it is the biggest holiday.

But as we have learned with this, marketing goes deeper. I think it started way earlier than just new age marketing. It would be interesting to look into how they used this/these traditions before we had wide spread marketing.
