Class Notes
Christianity is categorically different than all other religions.
Muhammad -> Islam
Buddha -> Buddhism
Christ -> Christianity
Islam could still exist even without Muhammad.
Buddhist teaching is more important than the Buddha, the Buddha is non-essential.
You can have the religion without the founder. All you need is the teaching.
It is impossible to live on the basis of Jesus' teachings alone. They are too idealistic. If you take the historical Jesus out of Christianity then you have a religion not worth talking about.
