An authoritarian society can still be morally right
well, I don't, I just don't mean it towards you
The problem is not with liberty the problem is putting liberty first
^
It can't come first and it's not the most important
You actually said something coherent
Because you can't have it without traditional Christianity
virtue and piety
^
The bible was composed by the church, it isn't the be all end all of anything
We have *2000 years* of teaching on the stuff in it. But without a proper magisterium, it's worthless
Context matters
Always
Comparing Christianity to other religions is just retarded because it's very very unique
Elaborate
Christian societies are nothing like Muslim societies. Christianity alone is God seeking man which is entirely unique to it.
But what makes Christian societies inherently above Muslim ones
Christianity is true
It's not two sides of the same coin
Whereas Islam is only partially true
One is very unique unlike any other religion on earth
Good night bud
Unqualified, both of you haven’t anything to stand on with saying it is unique and true
All religions have a small slice of the truth God has revealed. Only Catholicism has that full truth (and arguable Orthodoxy)
Christianity comes after that shit
While I would agree from a theological perspective
It would be argued by a Muslim that their interpretation is true
All other Abrahamic religions were before Jesus came and said hey I'm Jesus here I am and this is the actual truth I'm here to prove it and tell you
So it kinda renders them invalid
Islam came after Jesus
But in what way
Mohammad recognized Jesus as a prophet, Islam puts Mohammad as both the final and the most correct prophet
Mohammad came in 5th century
I thought
Maybe later
8th iirc
Either way, Islam rejects a lot of things Christ said
7th, looked up
Absolutely
The issue is that based on religious texts alone, Christianity is more reliable due to the nature of the texts involved
Islam rejects the Crucifixion which has been proven as true by the American Medical Assocation
