Ok I guess we’ve past the point of a civil conversation and now we’re getting into these types of replies.There’s no such thing as a Christian country.

Oh yeah, I guess the Geography just somehow magically changes once you cross from Greece to Turkey.I think a lot of it is geographical too tbh. I don't think many people would be rushing to live in Christian countries in Africa either.

Lol, of course there are. are you drunk or are just collapsing into sophistry?There’s no such thing as a Christian country.
Exactly, economically they are comparable, but you would live in one rather than the other simply because one is Christian and the other one is Islamic.I mean I'd still rather live in Greece than Turkey but it's not like it's a prosperous paradise nowadays.

But Muslims are always moving to Christian countries, which are culturally NOT similar to where they’re from.Sure but that's because it's more culturally similar to where I'm from.
I think Greece is pretty secular nowadays though.
We could simply just judge those countries by the fruits of the spirit and decide if they are Christian or notOk I guess we’ve past the point of a civil conversation and now we’re getting into these types of replies.![]()
Which ones?Lol, of course there are. are you drunk or are just collapsing into sophistry?

Kind of funny how that works, Muslims always moving to Christian countries, never the other way around.
so if i mentioned most euro countries you will just go to the sophistry route saying "well it's not in the constitution therefore they're technically not christian countries" which would be the most 10th grade argument on the planet.Which ones?
I don’t see Christian teachings reflected in modern western society. Reading Matthew and Acts you can see how the early Christian’s lived and what values they were taught.so if i mentioned most euro countries you will just go to the sophistry route saying "well it's not in the constitution therefore they're technically not christian countries" which would be the most 10th grade argument on the planet.
do you really wanna go in that direction?
Ah yeah? damn i should just go kill somebody that annoys me, steal their shit. it's surely no moral problem derived from christian ethics.I don’t see Christian teachings reflected in modern western society.
So what's so different now? christian ethics is imbued everywhere, from the corpus of law to interpersonal relationships, and even to the ways the polis is built.Reading Matthew and Acts you can see how the early Christian’s lived and what values they were taught.

I don't like to get in this kind of discussions since I'll not convince somebody out of their beliefs (and dont want to either) and they're not going to change mine.Ah yeah? damn i should just go kill somebody that annoys me, steal their shit. it's surely no moral problem derived from christian ethics.

Which were adopted from the Code of Hammurabi.The majority of our laws (including bankruptcy) were based on Christian teachings.
You can argue that we don't do a great job following those teachings, but never the less...

So the negative things and how we punish them are based on Christianity, but we don’t legislate the teachings of Christ with his social issues. Doesn’t make senseThe majority of our laws (including bankruptcy) were based on Christian teachings.
