Serial Killer Monk - History of Buddhism #2 - Extra History
Added 2023-08-04 17:30:00 +0000 UTCBuddhism teaches people to meditate, moderate behavior, live by ethical codes, and maintain love for their family and community. But why did Buddha's message appeal to so many people? Even with heavy competition from other religions, his words spread and endured over the centuries, continuing to foster spirituality in an ever-changing and chaotic world.

This is likely going to be a question for Lies but... what were the legal circumstances that came with someone seeking to convert to make up for past crimes?

2023-08-04 19:13:25 +0000 UTCQuestion for Lies -- on the subject of early Buddhism's offer of redemption to all and egalitarian message, would you agree with some historians* that early Christianity offered a similarly revolutionary appeal to Greco-Roman society? If so, how would you compare these conceptions of Moral Equality?

2023-08-04 19:12:37 +0000 UTCDid Christianity lift the idea of monastic orders and orders of nuns from Buddhism, or were these kinds of traditions more common among other religions of the ancient world that would more directly influence the nascent Christian community?
