I must have missed the part where the stoic philosophers spread their beliefs across the world. creating Western society. You know, that thing that gave us our individual rights.
.
Ummm, and in what sense did Jesus (personally) spread his views around the world? He wandered around a small patch of the Middle East, and many years later (after the Romans pulled the Temple down) some chaps wrote the Gospels. The religion remained a Jewish sect for some time.
Would those individual rights be those granted to the same Christians who sold people into slavery, under the imprimatur on God's appointed rulers (the Christian monarchs of several European states). Or those who instigated pogroms? Many Christians are quite selective about whose rights should be observed. I hope the victims recognised how lucky there were to have those individual rights.
This no knock on JC, he had some important (and good) things to say, and he certainly developed on the ideas of the Stoics. But much of what has turned out to be the modern Christian doctrine was developed both before and after his life, by people who were manifestly not him.
