  Results from FactBites:
 
Christianity - Crystalinks (5576 words)
Christianity is based on a particular experience or scheme directed to the act of saving--that is, of bringing or "buying back," which is part of what redemption means, these creatures of God to their source in God.
Christians, it might be said, used the vocabulary and repertory of options then available to them in speaking of the all-encompassing and the ineffable and grafted these onto the witness to God that was essential to their faith.
Christianity was as much a cultural tradition as it was a faith tradition, an assertion that the leadership of the medieval church would not have regarded as diminishing or insulting.
Christianity Meme: The Essence of Christianity (1875 words)
Christians are effectively mandated to transmit the Christianity Meme under threat of (eternal) death or spending eternity in Hell.
The illusion of Christianity being in the midst of a religious war brings a measure of urgency to the wielding of Christianity's political might.
The Christian philosophy that we are all sinners is a means of instilling guilt and shame that can only be resolved by living a life in the grace of God (under life-long infection by the Christianity Meme).
