What are the most important differences between the two aforementioned moralities? How distinct is Christianity really from it's Greco-Roman predecessor? If they are indeed so different, why? Which cultural backgrounds led to these discrepancies? Is the answer to be found in Indo-European society? If so, why did the Semites, save the Arabs I suppose, develop such a distinct morality? Due to their supposed enslavement in Egypt? I hope some of you find this question as compelling as I do. Thank you for your answers :)
Forgot to add the title again after failing my first post; sorry, lol. The title was "Greco-Roman morality vs. Christian morality"
>>18326787well, to start, both Rome and Greece practiced human sacrificesThe Colosseum was a grand spectacle of the most sadistic tortures to prisoners.It only ended thanks to Christian effortsYou can start from there
>>18326800Christians: we stopped the blood sports, we stopped abortions, we stopped human sacrifice, we stopped infanticideAlso christians: don't notice the burial pits filled with unwed mothers and their babies next to the latrines at the monastery we enslaved them at >don't notice all the witches we burned or the pagans we beheaded>definitely don't notice the generations of kids we fondled>don't notice all the homosexuals we strangled and burntFuck Abrahamists they are monsters and love to claim they are saving you while causing your death
>>18327033Thank you Lord, for making all my enemies look ridiculous.
>>18327033Christians have always practiced human sacrifice, we just don’t label them as sacrifices because we tend to view them from the Christian narrative.Every person killed in the Spanish Inquisition was a human sacrifice. Every person killed in witch trials were human sacrifices. Every person killed for heresy and apostasy were human sacrifices. Every Catholic priest killed by Protestants was a human sacrifice, as was every Protestant preacher killed by Catholics. Every pagan killed for their beliefs was a human sacrifice. Everyone slaughtered in the crusades were human sacrifices.They were all killed to satiate the Christian god. That’s precisely what religious human sacrifice is.
>>18327064>>18325844This is an automated spambot isn't it?
>>18327033>burial pits filled with unwed mothers and their babiesThis was a mythMonasteries have a lot of dead babies *because, they also function as clinics. Every clinic is bound to have a lot of dead bodies>witchesSpanish Inquisition was about hunting JEWS pretending to Christians to subvert the government. There were over 47000 trials, but only 658 were killed over 100 years. That's barely 1%Also, pagan societies have worse witch huntings>kids we fondledEvery society has pedophiles>homosexuals we strangled and burntConsidering what is happening right now, clearly, we didn't do it hard enough
>>18327356Every society has pedophiles only Christians think you get a hall pass from the gods to rape and molest people if you get enough converts-SBC, catholic Church evangelicals in general ect>Clearly we didn't do it hard enough I wish every one of you savages got dropped into Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia so you could live under the hellish, primitive religious theocracy you desire >only 1% executed Okay so all the torture and murder was ok I mean they only executed 1% "unjustly">>18326787The biggest differences come from the different out look on its most important characters.Yahweh maps onto Zeus and for some reason Christians made Dionysus and Prometheus half Jesus and half the devil, its comically dumbIn Christianity Satan is the bad guy for encouraging humanity to eat the appleIn Hellenistic polytheism Prometheus is revered for giving fireIn Christianity God made everyone perfect and binary aka Genesis In Hellenic polytheism Promtheus made humanity and then after getting shitfaced with Dionysus made LGBTQI peopleIn Christianity Yahweh has a child and has them sacrifice themselves to open up the gates of heavenIn hellenic polytheism Zeus has a son named Zagreus meant to sit on the throne but he was torn apart by titans before being reborn as Dionysus. Dionysus will eventually overthrow his father or replace him and end the cycle of reincarnation and bring a new era for humanity In Abrahamism Yahweh is a giant piece of shit asshole that demands worship for not being even worse and he is revered for itIn Hellenic polytheism Zeus is almost gets as bad as Yahweh at some points, he is achnowledged as a tyrant godI could keep going on, it's wild how anti human Abrahamism is
>>18326800It's not pointless deaths if it gives us entertainment
>>18326787are there any? illiad for example (a story about loss and forgiveness) is 100% comparable with story of jesus' death>>18327681you're raving about unrelated stories from old testament, op asked about christianity which is the new testament
>>18327033The people who do those things cease being Christian lest they repent and change. Pretty simple.
>>18327771>old testament >not Christianity Gods you fucking Christians get more obnoxious with your straw grasping every day
>>18327968Fascinating so Christians stop being Christians while doing things Christians have done for over 1500 years while proclaiming themselves Christians because...its inconvenient for you?You have a shit faith the few quotes from Jesus dont undo the original sins of abrahamism and they certainly don't stop the people acting in his name from acting like desert savages
>>18327970If someone does something that is directly contrary to Christian teachings, are they being Christians at that moment?
>>18327681>hall pass from the gods to rape and molest people if you get enough convertsNot at all. Who told you that?You can spend all your days side by side with Jesus and be granted with the authority to heal, ressurrect, and exorcise, and still end up in hellI.e Judas>I wish every one of you savages got dropped into Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia so you could live under the hellish, primitive religious theocracy you desireWe already have that theocrary and it's called Vatican.>only executed 1% "unjustly"Buddy, Rome straight up kills you on sight for having lead tablets with magic in itAfrica have countless riots brought about by witch hysteriasYes, Christianity partook in it, but it was never as bad as Jewlywood depicted it
>>18328304It's because I constantly watch them do itThe SBC moved around and protected pastors they knew were raping kidsThe Catholics moved around and protected priests they knew were raping and molesting kids>we don't do thatEvidently yes you doFuck Abrahamism
>>18328505We stopped human sacrifices, ladYou know, the human sacrifices that the rich are doing right nowHad it not been for Christians, they would have never had any need to do it in secret
