Mostly we'll agree tho if you go by Christ's teachings because he was quite humanist. In the form of the Son. Not in the form of the Father.

No, it comes from our moral emotions. Present more strongly in Ancient Greece and also in Hinduism. Christ didn't centre humans as much

I study Christian history too. The West owes a lot to Augustine & his ethics came from a mixture of Christianity & Greek philosophy.

Does
@TomHolland1996 deny that Augustine had great influence on the west & that he also drew on Greek philosophy? I'd be very surprised.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Well, when people speak of Western Christianity, they simply cannot avoid Augustine. So much of it is dominated by him.

I find Robert Wright good on this too and Ludwig Feuerbach too. Other religions are also unique.
