Out of the more than 4,200 religions in the world, what’s so special about Christianity? Who’s to say that Zeus or Muhammad isn’t God? Or what about Allah, is he for real? (1) Christianity is unique because of its God. God is all-knowing, all-loving, all-seeing, and most importantly: God is living, after all the other deities of other religions have passed on and died. 1 Thessalonians 1:9 calls God “the living and true God” and Hebrews 10:31 shows how “it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of a living God.” Clearly, He is the only God, and He always will be. (2) The Bible, the Book of Christianity, has survived a greater duration of time than any other religious book: two millennia and currently more than six billion in circulation! (3) Jesus. Did the deities of any other religion die to cleanse sins? Not that I recall. God, in the form of Jesus, in effect, was able to kill Himself! Not only that, but He was able to bring Himself back to life! No other deities did that!

With Christianity, you always win in the end.
You get saved from everything evil for eternity.
Things just get better and better throughout eternity.
Everyone who loves Jesus wins for ever, just cannot emphasize
that enough.
I Corinthians 13;8a, Love never fails!!!!!

"Christianity is unique because of its God. God is all-knowing, all-loving, all-seeing, and most importantly: God is living, after all the other deities of other religions have passed on and died."
How can you tell when a god dies?
"1 Thessalonians 1:9 calls God “the living and true God” and Hebrews 10:31 shows how “it is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of a living God.” Clearly, He is the only God, and He always will be."
The bible is not the biginning and end of all religious texts.
"(2) The Bible, the Book of Christianity, has survived a greater duration of time than any other religious book:"
Sorry. look up the sacred texts of Zoroastrianism, Hunduism, and whatever other prechristian religion you can think of. Those books still exist.
"(3) Jesus. Did the deities of any other religion die to cleanse sins?"
In most religions, there was no need to.
"God, in the form of Jesus, in effect, was able to kill Himself! Not only that, but He was able to bring Himself back to life! No other deities did that!"
Osiris and Attis did, just to name a couple off the top of my head.

Dan Brown was factual in every way in these passages from the Da Vinci Code:
"The vestiges of pagan religion in Christian symbology are undeniable. Egyptian sun disks became the halos of Catholic saints. Pictograms of Isis nursing her miraculously conceived son Horus became the blueprint for our modern images of the Virgin Mary nursing Baby Jesus. And virtually all the elements of the Catholic ritual - the miter, the altar, the doxology, and communion, the act of "God-eating" - were taken directly from earlier pagan mystery religions."
"Nothing in Christianity is original. The pre-Christian God Mithras - called the Son of God and the Light of the World - was born on December 25, died was buried in a rock tomb, and then resurrected in three days. By the way, December 25 is also the birthday or Osiris, Adonis, and Dionysus. The newborn Krishna was presented with gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Even Christianity's weekly holy day was stolen from the pagans."
Christianity is a combination of fiction and plagiarism.

In addition to the aforementioned points by you I would like to add that the apparitions of Jesus Christ and The Virgin Mary until fairly recently and many true miracles committed by both of them and the Saints are the best proof that Christianity is really unique.

Nothing in my opinion, I am Jewish and we are the most unique in my opinion, only .2% thats right point 2% of the entire world's population is Jewish, so the question is, why aren't you so unique? We are obviously way different from the rest of the world and therefore unique!
