By the way, some would even deny that Christianism (in its Trinitarian belief) is a Monotheistic religion. Thus, one might even accuse the Unitarian Christian beliefs (like Arrianism, which was adopted by many of the Eastern Germanic tribes) are a Middle East Monotheistic religion. But the concept of the Trinity alone is innovative and alienates Trinitarian Christianism from any Middle East Monotheistic religion.

I am? How am I trying to reform the belief system?

Anyway, this thread originally was obout this forum is an European one - we are too emeshed in theology now...
Agreed. There should be a split in this thread.

Quote:
And still Roman catholicism is labeled "conservative".
It is undeniably conservative in some aspects.

I wanted to propose a compomise since I thought Medevial Catholicism was the major spiritual guidance at that time - having led many great European leaders against those enemies still sieging us.
True.

Quote:
So you seperate between mundane Christianity and Christianity as spiritual guidance? How's that? A Christian who refuses being a member in a church still belives Jesus died to relief him from his sins.
Is that what you belief it is the spirituality in Christianism?

From what little we have debated so far, I am perfectly sure that you can do much better than that.

Quote:
Agreed - but often enough truth is refused by people following an ideology.
That's a too common mistake.

Quote:
Well, but this religion opened the door to such behavior.
Do you really believe that such behaviours did not exist in people before Christianity?

Quote:
Biased - me? Never In fact being magnanimity and clemency are not terms that immediately come to my mind when it is about Catholic church I must admit. Jesus was magnaminously and benevolent - it did not help him much because it was considered as weakness.
To be magnanimous first one needs to be stronger than opponent. How can it then be a weakness?


Sorry for this sudden break. Need some sleep and I still have a busy day tomorrow morning and afternoon. I'll try to finish answering tomorrow evening or night.
