I am an orthodox Christian, ask me a question!

[Jon Paul]

JP answer me this.What makes Christianity so different to previous religious movements in existence at the time of its inception?My view is simply that man created gods out of a lack of understanding of the world they lived in and where they themselves came from.By simply studying comparative religion you will see that Christianity is nothing more than a conglomeration of plagiarized myths prevalent in those days and prior to those times.The only reason I believe that Christianity has endured so long and has prospered so well is that it was accepted by the Roman government and fully backed by the system.They were the law and they imposed their beliefs on everyone under threat of death for blasphemy or just being against them.

You are not really asking a question, but shoving an extremely pessimistic view of the historical place, origins -and theological significance- of Christianity down my throat. What is so different, I will tell you, is the Christ. As to the rest, I am not interested in your crackpot Marxist theories about history, nor your genetic and straw man fallacy about myths and Christianitys relation to them.
