The vatican is also one of the single most important organizations in history. Doing countless good for all of man and developing a rich history. Not to mention the teachings of christ are still incredibly relevant today

>>3662213To be honest, for me the Christianity is better more peaceful than ours, in our religious texts if you committed a sin you have to pay it back as form of "Karma" and it's unavoidable and no one can stop it.
In CH you can confess to the religious leaders to cleans of it.
Also if you worship Christ's and being a decent Human being you went to heaven what matter how you practices, pray, or not all the good CH will went to heaven in after life.
In BH that's complex there are like tons of realms you be reborn just by yours Karma stats (Im not joking).
You could be reborn as Demon,Animal,in Hell,An Angel or human again etc.
Nirvana is it's own things so I doesn't counts here.

>>3662241Out of all the major religions Christianity teaches the most reasonable and peaceful way of life. Jesus Christ was a man without sin and suffered for our salvation even though we do not deserve it. The faithful men and women carried out his word for peace and prosperity and taught the good news to many of nation. It is the most subscribed to religion for a reason.

>>3662250>It is the most subscribed to religion for a reasonbandwagon fallacy
>teaches the most reasonable and peaceful way of lifeWhether its the most reasonable is completely subjective, and the extreme pacifism is bad in many ways. For example the Early Christians didnt even defend themselves, they followed the doctrine of "turn the other cheek" so if someone attacked them they just wouldnt fight back. Obviously after Constantine converted this changed, but Jesus taught this radical pacifism that was practiced by the Early Christians. I think that this teaching only makes people weak, I think people should defend themselves.

>>3662266Extreme pacifism is not good I do agree. But i do agree that solving things peacefully and without conflict is far superior to fighting and bloodshed. And if someone is threatening your life i do see it as reasonable to fight back

>>3662273>Extreme pacifism is not good I do agree.So you disagree with teachings of Christ then

Abrahamic religions worship one god but have diffrent ideas on who he is and what he does
β3662290[Quote]
>>3662275No i do not. When christ spoke of turning the other cheek he spoke of resisting violence and deescalating against an aggressore e.g insults or minor altercations such as a push. NOT to just allow people to walk over you. It is a commandment to solve things in a peaceful matter before violent ways. If a person tried to seriously kill you that is far different than what Jesus was talking about.
β3662303[Quote]
>>3662290But thats how the Early Christians did it, they literally didnt even defend themselves as I described above. So you think the Early Christians during the 1st to 4th centuries, some of whom who actually knew Jesus were following his teachings wrong and that your interpretation from hundreds of years later is more correct?
β3662313[Quote]
>>3662303I believe the early christians were just pacificists. Theologians INCLUDING the Catechism of the catholic church agree that the verse is about non serious attacks on ones person not a serious attack that could kill someone.

>>3662313That stuff is from hundreds of years later and not the original doctrine of Christianity, the Early Christians from the first 300 years after Jesus was born practiced the truest form of Christianity.

β3662355[Quote]
>>3662351Nope I believe that is the true teaching and meaning of the scripture because it is the most logical and reasonable meaning of that verse.
