Can The Church Regain Its Moral Authority?





4:18:
Was there a time in your life when you identified as a Christian?

10:12
Would you agree that most people who become Christians experienced an improvement in the
quality of their life?

16:00
Do you see anything special about Christianity in the way that it improves people's lives?

23:01
Where do you think about my point that when one becomes a Christian, you encounter a stimulus to expand your life and to be of loving service to other people?

30:53
What would you say is the state of Christianity in the world today?




What is the point of having an Archbishop of Canterbury who is not even Christian?

Why did Meriam Ishag sacrifice so much for Christianity when it is only the religion of white people who support gay marriage?

These Christians would burn each other at the stake for things they no longer care or even know about now. Michael Servetus was burned at the stake at the instigation of John Calvin for denying the Trinity.  Nice, huh? https://www.christianity.com/church/church-history/timeline/1501-1600/michael-servetus-burned-for-heresy-11629984.html

I think you need a lot of imagination for a Christian revival.

I recall several months ago a news story about a high ranking EU official (maybe an MP from Germany) converting to Islam. It set me to wondering if we are due for the trend of Western social conservatives abandoning their pozzed churches for the bedrock moral clarity and social/family cohesion that Islam projects.

In the end, you just have to use whatever's around that would work.  https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/01/31/far-right-afd-member-converted-islam-protest-gay-marriage-acceptance/ When you think about it, Secular Koranism is actually far more low maintenance than Christianity. You are not required to attend a place of worship, just obey the law.  If everyone were forced into Christianity, there would actually have to be another Inquisition, even if it is non-violent but ultimately discriminatory and totalitarian.

Claire Khaw
The fact is that Christianity and Islam were derived from Judaism. Therefore it would be logical to conclude that both represented attempts by the gentile to adapt Judaism for their own advancement.

Claire Khaw
The priesthood represents a parasitic class. Islam does away with the unnecessary and corrupt middle man, because it regards sharia as a means of maintaining morality rather than the corruptible priesthood. Since any advanced society would have a judiciary , the judiciary become a quasi-priesthood in that it takes on the role of applying and interpreting what are believed to be God's laws. That is enough and takes away and an unnecessary layer of the state.

Hinduism is not an organised religion and neither is Judaism; Vincent cannot choose between Hindus and Muslims
