1 Christianity The Basics II
2 Goals Quick Recap Smith: What made Jesus Remarkable? 2 Features of Early Christianity History of Intolerance? Reconnecting with truth Separating Institution from Teachings Possible?
3 Review Basic Background: Followers New Testament Story of John the Baptist: The Radical Jewish Society: Roman Control Pharisees Warrior-King Messiah
4 Review Story of Jesus: The Gospel of love and compassion The Birth and Spread of Christianity: Constantine, The RMC J s Identity? Christianity Splits: Orthodox Protestantism
5 J = Remarkable? (1) Actions (2) Language (3) Message
6 J s Actions J walked the walk. Went about doing good without the need for fanfare. Legend of J grows through followers, not through himself.
7 J s Language Spoke in a vivid style. Not = You must X If we see the world differently, then we act differently. If we see the world as full of God s creations, we feel oneness with all others. The message went against social norms and secular rationality.
8 J s Message When God s love flows, doing X is not unreasonable or idealistic. Golden Rule : Treat others as you would treat yourself. Turn the other cheek The outcasts of society are truly blessed by God.
9 J s Message When God s love flows, doing X is not unreasonable or idealistic. Golden Rule : Public shaming? Our village? Turn the other cheek : 911? Capital Punishment? Outcasts of society are truly blessed by God: Homelessness? Freeloaders?
10 2 Features of Early Christians Mutual Care: Did not separate each other by class or gender. Inner Radiance/Harmony: Despite persecution and poverty, they earn non-believers respect. This helps Christianity spread throughout Europe.
11 3 Reasons for Inner Radiance (1) No Fear of Death J = Example of everlasting life. (2) No Guilt J has come to atone for sin. No need to hold guilt against ourselves and can work towards becoming better people. (3) No Ego Direct connect with God = material world and self disappears.
12 Jesus and Buddha? Q: Any similarities to Buddha s teachings here? Q2: What about Muhammad? The Dao? Others?
13 Intolerance I n the name of God? European Inquisitions: Convert, leave or die! Crusades: Extermination of Jews, Muslims. Western Colonialism: Non-believers are savages requiring reform.
14 Intolerance I n the name of God? Modern Times: Racism: KKK Homophobia: God punishes America for accepting homosexuality. Against Islam: God will destroy Islam. Against Science: Global Warming, Creation Museum, etc.
15 Reconnecting with truth JW: When we separate the teachings of original Christianity from the institution and history of the RMC, there is much to learn. But can we do it?
16 Reconnecting with truth (1) Many religions have transformed after the death of its founder. Ex. Buddha became a god. Ex2. Confucius as god. RMC: New rituals, traditions and authorities. All become bureaucratic, political and part of secular economy.
17 Reconnecting with truth (2) Christianity requires little more than following the Golden Rule and faith in Jesus. So we should: Love one another. Pray in Jesus name to bridge our connection to God. There is no requirement for man-made harm or violence.
18 Reconnecting with truth (3) The 4 Gospels offer very few specific rules or laws to follow. Mainly parables (moral stories) of J and his message of love for one another. (4) So, we are left with interpreting J s teachings through the Gospels and New Testament.
19 Reconnecting with truth (5) The basics of J s teachings go against examples of intolerance. J never claimed killing in God s name was ever justified. J never claimed we must judge and rebuke outsiders J never claimed we must establish churches and receive money from followers. At best, justified harm is
20 Reconnecting with truth (6) So, what about the history of intolerance? (6.1) They are the correct interpretations of the teachings. (6.2) They are the incorrect interpretations of the teachings.
21 Neither Gets Us Very Far Each In the name of God can be contradicted with an opposite action done In the name of God. What about (6.3) They are examples of institutions formed in the name of J, acting in the name of J, but do not necessarily exemplify Jesus teachings.
22 Reconnecting with truth (6.3) They are examples of institutions formed in the name of J, acting in the name of J, but do not necessarily exemplify Jesus teachings. (7) If we accept (6.3) and want to be good Christians (good humans? Followers of X?), then we should work to separate the institution from the teachings.
23 1 Question, 2 Paths So how do we separate the institution from the teachings? Smith: All religions require authority, ritual, speculation (interpretation).
24 1 Question, 2 Paths Path 1: We should return to the original teachings of a given religion: (1) Can we get there without repeating the process of authority and ritual? (2) Can we accomplish this without producing harm and intolerance? (3) Would we call this a religion? If not, what do we call this?
25 1 Question, 2 Paths Path 2: We don t need religion at all: (1) Can we just have a moral code without religious institutions? (2) Does this mean there is no authority, ritual and speculation involved? (3) Does this prevent intolerance and harm?
26 Ideas?... You re now ready to handle these questions. Thoughts? Objections? Rachels, Extremism.
