Top 10 Scenarios If Christianity Never Existed
Note: This list isn't meant to offend. It's just a list about a simple "What if?" scenario of Christianity completely disappearing from existence. That is all.Double note: I know I used to have an anti-religion account of mine in which I retired (it's still on here just to let you know). When I was using it I used to think that religion was the main cause of all the wars and sufferings that have been going on in the world but to tell you all the truth, while religion has caused wars which is not at all false, it isn't entirely accurate either. Even if religion didn't exist we would still have wars (whether it be because of race, language culture, etc.). Human beings are always finding different ways to kill each other so would we be much better if we didn't have religion? I just wanna point that out there.
Whether you're religious or not, what's more important to realize is that you should never use your own beliefs to justify bad behavior. Believe what you want but always be responsible about it and don't go around causing harm in others. Don't discriminate either because it makes you look like an even bigger douchebag. Enough said.
None of these are in particular order. I also got most of them from AlternateHistoryHub. Feel free to check him out if you haven't.
The Top Ten Scenarios If Christianity Never Existed
The Tom and were homophobic and many other ancient civilization's so that's always existed.
The church actually made homosexuality illegal for centuries. It's the churches fault.
Whats polytheism?
Polytheism is the belief in the existence of numerous gods & goddesses, all of whom are worthy of our worship. Monotheism is the belief in the Existence of Only One God Who Alone, is Worthy of our worship. - clusium
Are you a fan of Veggietales? Since you was a little kid? What if Christianity never existed? There would be no such thing as Veggietales. No Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber.
Then learn the point of the Easter Bunny.
No. They wouldn't because hell is also Christian belief. - PastelSnowstorm
The church was jealous of Paganism and removed them.
Pancake day would be about the sun.
Easter would be about fertility but it would be called Ostara
Halloween would be Pagan new year but called Samhain.
Christmas would be called Yule and would be about the Rebirth and The Return of the Sun.
By the way I was making fun of number 10 Everyone would go to hell because of some new mobile phone advert for 3 mobile The Serpent telling Eve to eat the Apple.
? If Christianity never existed, then nobody would believe in that stuff, considering that it’s made up.
How do you know? Oh all religions cause war because you hate it. Piss off.
Yes, but, there would have been other types of religious wars. - clusium
Muhammad's brother in-law was christian and interpreted his vision of "angel Gabriel" who tried to choke him. If there was no christianity, Muhammad had commited suicide because he thought he was posessed by an evil spirit.
If you ask me, it would've been beneficial for the Middle East. Without sectarian violence, oppressive religious laws, and radicalism and such. I don't mean offense around here. - Bolshoy_Brat
I thought islam would already be a religion at that time - BoyGenius234
The Contenders
Uh exactly!
Not really. We might have more vestiges of clan structure and culture but no, urban development and nation states would still have arisen, and indeed did well before Christianity ever existed. In fact we might have done away with tribal society even sooner, since Christianity is arguably one of the reasons the Roman Empire fractured. - Dago
Yes, christianity made a pretty common ground for most europeans. Also, christian cultures are very similar to each other. No France, no Spain, no Russia, no Switzerland.
No, because we Europeans could still kick ass.
Ancient religions of Rome and Greece were very patriarchal. So patriarchal that male leaders preferred to bounce with boy lovers instead of their wives. And when I say boy I mean children as well. It wasn't even a secret back then.
Well, most of the world already is sexist. Rather, I think the continued presence of feminine deities in spiritual life may have accelerated the progression of women’s rights. That’s not a guarantee of course but I doubt sexism would be MORE prevalent than it is today. - Dago
Maybe Christianity is better sometimes but Paganism isn't sexist and that came before.
Wait...they would?
*The World if Christianity never existed* Who is Jesus? A kid in school is made fun of because he was named Jesus, because the name sounds really old.
Jesus would have never been born, because his birth is a centerpoint of Christianity - 2storm
Exactly
Even more so, people liked to confront christianity because of its dogmaticism. In pagan cultures all around the world this missing part seems to let the people stick to their religious beliefs. (India, Japan)
100% correct
They thought epilepsy was demonic possession.
No Christianity then we wouldn't think that more like an examination dunno how back then.
How else did you want them to react to this disease? It's not like medicine was advanced back then. If Christianity never happened, I bet people would of had a very similar reaction. - RogerMcBaloney
According to non christian scholars, christianity arose out of christian proselyte communities especially within Greece and Roma. Judaism was indeed popular, and maybe another christianity still existed (without Jesus whatsoever)
Judaism was pretty popular in rome, around 10% of romans were jews around year 30. so we could see a jewish rome in around year 100
Do you like or hate Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber?
Bible man?
WE KNOW CHRISTIANS OPENED HOSPITALS BUT ATHEISTS HAVE MORE KNOWLEDGE.
No they would not. - clusium
The Book of Shadows was started by Gerald Gardner. - clusium
Clusium this is about if Christianity never existed.
We know Christians opened the hospitals, but this is if no one wrote the Bible.
Atheists would open them instead having more medical knowledge.
Opened by atheists.
Thick as a brick whoever put this one. Christmas was made up by the church to give Jesus a birth date. It used to be Saturnalia and Yule.
Think of that sentence and then study hard of math and science try to become a scientist and make the impossible possible making a time machine, you could be that genius. Destroy anything about Christianity in the past and come back he could just be still be in his old job in Australia.
There would be abuse by clergy of other religions (including the ones that died, out with the rise of Christianity). - clusium
Study new scientists to make the impossible possible time machine.
May 21st 2011, I'm looking at you Christian goofs who sold all your money, pets, house supplies.
Clusium this is about if Christianity never existed.
We know Christians opened the hospitals, but this is if no one wrote the Bible.
