christianitys impact on philosophy?

Answer 1

it doesnt have an impact at all in my opinion. it is faith. philosophy is about knowledge that can be known. the only thing christianity does is limit what a person can ask due to fear. but other than that it doesnt teach anything at all. because philosophy is about free thinking. not blindly following

Answer 2

Christianity has had a vast, almost unmeasurably vast, impact on philosophy. Virtually every Western philosophical concept of the past 2000 years has been informed by Christianity, either as an outshoot of theological principles or as a reaction to them. Augustine, Aquinas, Descartes, Voltaire, Marx, Lewis... the list of luminaries who were heavily influenced by Christian philosophy is a who's-who of philosophy.

In fact, it would seem that the extent of Christian influence on philosophy is so extensive that attempting to valuate it is impossible. Since all Western philosophical concepts, good and bad, have roots in Christian thinking, its overall influence would seem to be rather neutral.

Answer 3

St. Thomas Aquinas demonstrated that Aristotelian philosophy was compatible with Christianity. He used Aristotelian thought to understand and to explain many aspects of the faith.

St. Thomas is the most prominent example of a Christian philosopher, but by no means is he the only one. St. Anselm and St. Augustine, likewise, made significant contributions to philosophy.

Answer 4

Man has divided himself into groups and in so doing has bought about dissention.
The Almighty did not classify his children, nor did he want them segregated. He wanted Unity, Unity in all. No division.
Man has taken on these so called Proverbs as though they were Gospel and wrecked havoc, instilling hate, division, greed.
Reckless is he who believes in such material for the Father has stated that to Know Me, is to Be Me.
No limitations, no divisions, no greed, only Love and Understanding.
Man has endured many a life time of pain and suffering needlessly.
He is too quick to believe the false words of fellow man before first exploring the Father Within and his Mighty Wisdom.

Answer 5

Which "christianity"? The one commonly and popularly practiced by vast hordes of robot troglodytes led by used car salesmen/ psychopaths, or the real version, explicated in such readily available books as *Gnosis of the Cosmic Christ*?
If you are referring to the latter, then there does exist true philosopho-ontological context to help uplift the "average" human both intellectually and energetically.
Forsake the vast wasteland of conformity, mediocrity, delusion and corruption, and turn to valid practices for experiencing "Divinity" would be my suggestion. :))))
