If a Mongolian is building a cart, he knows some math skills. Whether he labels the numbers "1" or "&," he still knows some math.
That same Mongolian may have never heard of Jesus or, more importantly, the mounds upon mounds of stories that surround him.
If knowledge is truly universal, why must one learn these through education versus contemplation? If one were to sit under a tree, like Buddha, and dissect everything that passes through their mind, they will arrive at the same spot.
However, Christianity, in particular, does not work this way. If you sat under a tree, you would never know that the Earth was formed by a God (leads to more questions). That human life started from 2 people. This would only lead to more questions if you truly dissect it.
My question is, how Universal is Christianity when it cannot be contemplated by an African and Australian producing the same results? Why would they be completely different?
No Bible quotes because that just proves my point
