This came on the History Channel like 8 years ago or something like that!. I think Muhammed was number 3 and I think Bill gates was number 2!. But they had Jesus as number 1!.
Why!?Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Jesus is more influential than Muhammad because Christianity, once it merged with the power of the Roman Empire, has historically had greater military and financial resources to spread the Christian idea around the world than the Muslim religion had!. We should be careful, though, to not judge whether a religion, political position, or philosophy is true or false, good or bad, on the basis of how popular one is over another!. Remember McDonalds has fed more people than Whole Foods Market, but the products that McDonalds sells is far less healthy than that of Whole Foods Market!. Just because one competitor, whether it is a food seller or religious figure, is more popular, doesn’t make that food seller or religious figure necessarily good!. Www@QuestionHome@Com I haven't seen the show but I believe it would've been because you have to look the viewers that would've been watching that programme!. It would have been geared towards white, middle aged, (probably Christain) viewers who would have been angry to hear that a muslim figure had influence over a christain figure!. It might not literally be true, that Muhammed was less influencial because I know he is terribly important, but the History Channel, like all entertainment venues, are subjective!. They air what they want to air!. Www@QuestionHome@Com The influence of Jesus was a turning point in the understanding of the relationship between man and God!. Man attempted to redeem himself by his works or rule following, whereas God provided the redemption through His perfect work!. This 'discovery' was one which lead men in an attempt to emulate this Savior which in turn brought a message of peace!. The Christian message is extended without threat!. Guy #2-Bill Gate only brought technological advances, not peace!. Guy #3-Muhammad brought a message of terror to non believers!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Dear Friend, Jesus is the Savior of the world!. Only Jesus died in humanities place for the price of sin, and defeated death!. Jesus rules at the right hand of the Father (Jehovah)!. Jesus wasn't (and isn't) just Man, He is God, and He is preparing to take HIs Bride (the Church)!.!.!.without spot, blemish, or wrinkle, HOME to glory! Amen!. Jesus is alive! ALL the others are!.!.!.DEAD!Www@QuestionHome@Com Jesus' followers had a 600-year jump on Mohammed's to kill off as many non-believers as they could!. More have been killed in the name of Jesus the so-called Christ than in Mohammed's name!.Www@QuestionHome@Com I think that Jesus' story reached more people and Christianity has been a more commercial religion throughout the years than Islam!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Because Jesus influenced more people than Muhammed!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
