What good has Christianity done to mankind?

Answer 1

Haha i'm a christian but i'm gonna say this anyway.

It's taught people how to debate... and twist things around to get what they want. -.-

Answer 2

Christianity, interior the wonderful context, supplies all the path to taking your eyes off of what's already lifeless - our flesh/ego - and putting our attractions on the flaws eternal, those of the Spirit. those issues you indexed above, the clever issues in case you will, all handle a different intensity while pushed via love. while love is the muse for all you do, because it relatively is meant to be in Christianity, then the unfathomable concept of eternity is a mute factor through fact right this moment is gorgeous too.

Answer 3

The thing that comes to mind is that it brought women up to the respected role in which they are revered. In the ancient cultures, Greek e.g. once the woman married, they were to never step foot outside of her home for any reason! They were a second class citizen. Man was supreme ruler and a woman was punished for voicing her opinion. That is not how God designed it! there are many other good examples that it would be worth it to experience it yourself. You will find that your life will be better following Jesus Christ!

Answer 4

you should learn the parable of the sower. It will explain everything you need to know, and then your question will be answered. Jesus said "And the truth will set you free"

We are headed for the establishment of a new government....that government is the Kingdom of God...what do you think the Lord prayer was all about.

Let your Kingdom come on Earth as it is in Heaven...sounds like a new Government to me...are you ready.....I hope so...because we are living in the generation of the Fig Tree...that's another parable Jesus taught...you need to learn that one too...in fact he said learn it, so it must have been pretty important for him to say learn it.

Answer 5

Christianity has given people a chance to be made new creatures in Christ and to become saved from our sinful nature. Christianity has given us a hope that other religions and worldviews can only pretend to give. Some have done evil using the word Christianity to support their cause but that doesn't mean it was Christian. Just like I could do evil things in the name of Bill Clinton or George Bush but they couldn't be blamed for my actions done "in their name".

Answer 6

Too innumerable to list here.

Here is a start...

List of Christians:
Isaac Newton, Neils Bohr, Charles Darwin, Louis Pasteur, Galileo Galilei, Johannes Kepler, Nicolaus Copernicus, Michael Faraday, James Clerk Maxwell, Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrodinger, Andreas Vesalius, Tycho Brahe, Max Planck, Enrico Fermi, Arthur Eddington, William Harvey, Carl Gauss, John von Neumann, Gregor Mendel, John Dalton, Alexander Fleming

Answer 7

Like universities, mentors, and hospitals. (Jews should be part of the Concept also; since Christianity came from a Jewish Foundation).

Answer 8

There has been a lot of evil done in the name of Christianity, but Christians give a lot of money to charity.

Answer 9

Christianity has provided a vehicle for the Message of Salvation, by which some small numbers of men shall live forever.

It also was the source for modern scientific thought.

Answer 10

As with any religion, it has doen tons of good by telling people to be good and not @$$holes.

Unfortunately, as with any religion, history has shown that when too many people follow something, those in power of it will change it to suit their fat, hairy, & dishonest behinds, for total control. Or they'll take the stories literally, or they'll say, "God doesn't like _______", just because they hate it themselves- it's called fascism, censorship and propaganda, look it up.

Answer 11

20-30 million deaths from the religion itself, countless cultures destroyed, and some good from charity.
