...Western culture itself was significantly developed through the emergence of Christianity as it was introduced in the Roman Empire in the late 4th century and evolved in the course of the European Middle Ages, and the term "Christendom" largely indicates this intertwined history. Western Christianity was significantly influenced by Hellenistic religion (notably Platonism and Gnosticism) as well as the Roman imperial cult. Western Christianity is based on Roman Catholicism (Latin Rite), as opposed to Eastern Orthodoxy, from which it was divided by the Great Schism of the 11th century, and further includes all Protestant traditions splitting off Roman Catholicism from the 16th century.

How do you compare eastern and We got a school project a
couple weeks ago and it was to
compare eastern and western
religions. That's like the
main thing we have to do but
im not sure how to do to that.
Over the last couple weeks hes
given us information on the
top 9 practiced religions and
we've taken notes on each one
like branches, founder, key
beliefs etc. Now how am i
supposed to compare eastern
and western?

Christianity is as eastern as it gets. The idea that a first century middle eastern Jew named Jesus claiming to be God Himself constitutes a western religion is utter nonsense. |

How does the three Western Compare how the three Western
religions, Judaism,
Christianity, and Islam,
portray God and the
relationship between God and
humanity.
What passages from religious
scriptures we support these
ideas. What do these
scriptures say about the
nature of this relationship?
How are these same themes
portrayed in Roman and Greek
literature, such as the Aeneid
or the Iliad? What are the
main differences and
similarities between images of
God as they are portrayed in
Greek and Roman literature and
those images of God portrayed
in the Bible and the Qur'an?

Each believes that there is only one god, but that is the end of that simiarity. In Islam, the name of god is Allah, and is not the same as the Christian god. Middleeastern translations of the bible has all references of "god" written as Allah because the Islamic run countries, required the translations to replace the word god with the name "Allah". For those who convert to Islam, they must say there is no god but Allah, and if Allah was the true translation of god, then those taking the oath would say, "There is no Allah but Allah" Allah was one of over 300 some odd dieties worshipped and was promoted to "one true god" by Muhammed. In actuality, Allah was the moon god. Christians tend to believe that jesus was the son of god, and became part of god, which is the trinity. This is not true with all christians, as many believe Jesus was a prophet, and even the son of god, but is still seperate from god. I do not know enough about the jewish side to say for sure, but I have always been told that the Jewish god, and the Christian god "Jehovah" or its alternate spelling "Iahova" (pronounced with a J at the beginning) are one in the same. |
