The main points of Christianity?
#6
RE: The main points of Christianity?
Quote:Justice is not yet proven to exist, and certainly hasn't come back for all humanity. Same with Jesus.

Nitpicking is something I do, and this is something I thought I'd make a small comment on. There is a difference between saying Justice is not shown to exist and Jesus is not shown to exist. Justice is a concept, a value that we hold as the basis of morality. It's not a physical thing. Saying you can't prove justice exists is like saying you can't prove math exists, or you can't prove ethics exist.

Jesus was a person, or a group of people who were congealed into one via mythologizing history. Either he existed or he didn't. It's pretty clear that the Jesus of the gospels DID NOT exist, but did a philosopher of his type exist at the beginning of Christianity to give birth to the figure portrayed in the gospels? Possibly. There were a lot of them in the area at the time.

As to the OP, I've given it some thought. First, I don't think those are the main points of Christianity. Some of them aren't even implied by Jesus. Not wanting people to be covetous and wanting people to help the poor is not the same as telling people to be starving beggars. The points listed don't prove the religion false, the fact that none of it happened does that just fine enough.
