Christianity brought from Judaism its scriptures (the Old Testament) and fundamental doctrines such as monotheism, and the belief in a moshiach (Hebrew term for messiah); this term is more commonly known as Christ (Christos in Greek). ... Christianity has a different form of the messiah, in which God himself came in the flesh as Jesus, and became the deliverer of both Israel and of all mankind. Christians and Jews have disagreed about which of them has the truer conception of messiah from the time Christianity was born until now, often relying on different interpretations of various passages from the Old Testament or Tanakh. ...
- Christianity also continued many of the patterns found in Judaism at that time, such as: adapting the form of synagogue worship to church parishes; use of incense in prayer; use of Psalms and other scriptures; a priesthood; a religious calendar in which certain events and/or beliefs are specifically commemorated on certain days each year; use of chant in hymns and prayer; ascetic disciplines such as fasting and almsgiving. ...

181. Leaving Christianity
- www.users.globalnet.co.uk
- Leaving Christianity.
- Why should such people leave Christianity? These people are the best versed in Christianity and yet they leave despite so much personal and professional investment in their religion, enjoyment of their time as believing Christians and social pressures to stay. How can this happen if the evidence for Christianity is so good? If supernatural Christianity is true, shouldn't they have known better? But what if the history and philosophical and moral implications of the various branches of Christianity are very different from that which is traditionally taught? The painful fact for many Christians is that through research and thinking this is the conclusion to which they often come. Why else should all these people leave, contrary to their world-view, culture, professions, and heavy investment in Christianity? Why would God go to the trouble of incarnation and crucifixion only to allow genuine seekers to find Christianity untenable, or give "spurious" experiences and "incorrect" interpretation to those who spend so many years trying to be Christians? From our research and testimonies it is apparent that Christianity is not what we once thought it was. ... I thought I was the first to deconvert from a genuine heartfelt Christianity until I discovered a few hints in books, some friends with similar stories and then the voluminous accounts on the Internet! I hope to keep these pages fresh as I am still in the process of collecting stories and links and discussing this subject with various interested parties. ...

183. Androgyny in Christianity (Summary of Dissertation)
- www1.tip.nl
- Androgyny in Christianity.
- Boudewijn Koole, Man en vrouw zijn een: De androgynie in het Christendom, in het bijzonder bij Jacob Boehme (English title: Man and woman are one: Androgyny in Christianity, particularly in the works of Jacob Boehme), Utrecht 1986, with `Summary in English', with extensive Notes, Bibliographies, as well as Indexes on I. ...
- 1 History and description of androgyny in Christianity.
- Semitica et Theologica by Elio Jucci (sexuality - Bible, Judaism, Christianity &tc. ...
- The main objective of this study is to explore androgyny in Christianity, to uncover new material and make it available for public debate. It offers not only an introduction to androgyny in Christianity, but also to the - mostly unknown - authors on the subject, who are important for the history of Christian Gnosticism, Mysticism, Pietism and Theosophy. ...
- 1 History and description of androgyny in Christianity.
- This book offers an overall view of the history of androgyny in Christianity and makes it possible to define its essence more accurately. ...
- Androgyny was not popular in the mainstream of dogmatical institutional Christianity, but rather in the circles of artists, liberals, and pietists, of Rosicrucians, Freemasons, and alchemists. ... Research into the historical roots of androgyny confirms the view that later Christianity has often represented a narrowing of several different streams flowing from its time of origin, which were fed by, among other things, the confrontation of the Jewish religion with the Greek and other surrounding cultures and religions. It is becoming increasingly clear nowadays that in the first centuries of Christianity choices were made which, in the form of later unconscious prejudices, determined Christian thinking and Christian culture for a long time to come, and which also were choices between alternatives which perhaps are still of value even now, and knowledge of which is in any case an enrichment of our self-understanding.
- At the same time this book provides the basis (now available in Dutch:) for a comparison of androgyny in other, particularly Eastern religions, with androgyny in Christianity (in which comparison also the Jewish and the Islamic traditions should then be involved).
- This book explores partly the position of woman in Christianity and Western culture. ... Following my teacher, Professor Quispel, who has said that Gnosticism, Mysticism and Pietism have distinguished themselves within Christianity in the sense that woman could develop herself within them for her own sake, I want to stress that androgyny - unity of 'man' and 'woman', 'male' and 'female' - cannot be thought of without the peculiar value of the woman. ... We can now interpret androgyny as a corrective to this one-sidedness, although we must admit that androgyny in Christianity has nevertheless from its beginning shown the traces of a patriarchal thinking. Therefore it seems legitimate to conclude that an other, better position of woman in Christianity (at least on the ideological level), or offering a Christian contribution towards a greater equilibrium between man and woman in our culture, will only be possible through a much more fundamental change of Christianity than is usually contemplated. ...

- Christianity and Society.
- disturbing facts about Christianity's history .
- Unsurprisingly, history shows that a belief in Christianity often leads people to commit cruel acts and to do evil to others. (pictures of Christian torture, murder and mayhem) Not only has a belief in Christianity caused people to commit evil, it also has prevented people from understanding the world around them, and in this way it has impeded medicine and science over the centuries. ... Needless to say, Christianity's view of sexuality is far from healthy, which possibly explains the high incidence of sexual abuse of children by ministers and priests. ...
- (See the Crusades, the inquisitions, witches, and religion and violence) Certain churches did fight against slavery, but the fact of the matter is that the Bible itself condones this horrible institution and Christianity, for most of its history, was pro-slavery. ...
- It is clear that Christianity is a business, and like any business its purpose is to make money. ... Christianity is a con game, with promises of great rewards, threats of terrible punishments and various other psychological pressures brought to bear. Is it any surprise that the early Church was a forgery mill? (see here) It shouldn't be - all of the major doctrines and story elements of Christianity are found in earlier religions. ...
- Obviously, Christianity has evolved and changed over the years, despite what ministers would like you to believe. You might be surprised to know that a major doctrine of Christianity, the Trinity, did not become part of the religion until the 4th century.
- (It was a very traumatic experience) As I grew older, I started to hold a somewhat skeptical view of Christianity since its stories of gods and demons appeared no more plausible than the Greek myths about gods and demons which everyone "knew" were false. However, I was not able to entirely discount the possibility that Christianity was true since so many seemingly intelligent adults believed it, and we really couldn't go back in time to see what had actually taken place 2000 years ago. Since Christianity had persisted after all these years, perhaps there was something to it. ...
185. Article: Friedrich Nietzsche
- www.wikipedia.org
- Nietzsche is famous for his rejection of what he calls "slave morality" (which he felt reflected the inverse of the "will to power" and a perversion of useful altruism); his attacks on Christianity (a character in one of his works declared that "God is dead"); his origination of the Übermensch concept (translated as "Overman" or "Superman") in only one of his books; his embrace of a sort of a-rationalism; and something he called "the Will to Power" (Wille zur Macht). ...
- not like Christianity vs. like Christianity .
- Riverside, "What Spengler, Toynbee, and Nietzsche can teach us is how Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, despite superficial differences, were all forged and/or altered by a religious revolution in ancient Iran associated with the name Zoroaster or Zarathustra. ...
- In his important work "The Anti-Christ ian " Nietzsche frontally attacked German scholarly Christianity for what he called its "transvaluation" of healthy instinctive values. He went beyond agnostic and atheistic thinkers of the Enlightenment who felt that Christianity may simply be an untrue religion to claiming it may have been deliberately propagated as an inherently bad and subversive religion (or in late 20th century parlance: a "psychological warfare weapon" or "ideological computer virus") within the Roman Empire by the Apostle Paul as a form of covert revenge for the Roman destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple during the Jewish War. ... Mencken, Nietzsche felt that the religion of the ancient Greeks of the heroic and classical era was superior to Christianity because it portrayed strong, heroic, smart, and muscular men as role models and did not try to demonize healthy natural desires, such as creativity and writing poetry. ...
- In "The Anti-Christ" Nietzsche said that while it was necessary for Jews at points in their history to affect "slave morality" as an oppressed minority as a means to get their oppressors off their backs by deceiving them while hiding their own strengths, the deception practiced by Saul of Tarsus in spreading Christianity went too far in its social destructiveness. ...

191. Article: Religious pluralism
- en.wikipedia.org
- Religions like Judaism and Islam had existed alongside Christianity in many parts of Europe, but they were not allowed the same freedoms as the established form of Christianity. New forms of Christianity were suppressed by force (see for example Lombard heresy and Huguenots). ...
- In the last century, liberal forms of Judaism and Christianity have modified some of their religious positions. ... Religious conservatives in Christianity reject these claims outright, and hold that only their path allows a person to reach God. ...
- For example, Christianity accepts some aspects of Judaism, but generally rejects Islam. Islam accepts some aspects of Christianity, but does not tolerate the Bahá'í Faith. Most adherents of Baha'i accept Christianity, Islam and Judaism, but do not accept new theological innovations that have been created in their community since then. ...
- Christianity teaches that on their own, it is impossible for any person to have a relationship with God, and that the result of a lack of such a relationship is damnation. To avoid such a fate, Christianity teaches that Jesus Christ was God made flesh in a literal manner, and that by accepting various beliefs about Jesus and God and repenting, a person could then have a meaningful relationship with God and avoid damnation, and earn eternal life in Heaven. ...
- Some view Christianity as a form of egalitarianism, because it teaches that all humanity potentially has equal access to salvation: a person simply has to renounce their faith and sincerely adopt Christianity. ...
- ) Christianity insists it is the fullest and most complete revelation of God to Man. If Christianity is true, than other religions cannot be equally true, although they may contain lesser revelations of God that are true. So the pluralist must either distort Christianity to make it pluralistic, or reject it and acknowledge that one cannot be a complete pluralist. ...
- Thus, Christianity must preach salvation through the Church to all outside the Church, in order to help people realize that through conversion to Christianity one will achieve salvation. ...
- Before the Great Schism, mainstream Christianity confessed "one holy catholic and apostolic church", in the words of the Nicene Creed. ...
