淺論 Christianity

這一周來, 藉中時一篇三壯四少專欄引起,作者在小亞西亞 (Asia Minor) 幾個古國, 如喬治亞共和國, 

亞塞拜然,亞美利亞駐訪, 文中特別介紹 当地音樂,文化,歷史及宗教, 我就一頭裁在這些迷人的話題裡,

前兩,三日,轉傳了些 Armenian Music, (Joseph Schmidt, Isabel Bayrakdarian, Komitas..) 分亨;

在 Browse 這些網頁時, 看到其中有提到他的宗教屬於基督教中的信徒教派 

(Armenian Apostolic Church); 長久以來,对基督教,天主教及猶太教諸教派一直搞不清楚;

譬如像電影 "教會" - The Mission (http://goo.gl/JMT1GH) 中 耶穌士教派 The Jesuits 

(http://goo.gl/Yeibm; http://goo.gl/VnKM9; http://goo.gl/gFmlLA; http://goo.gl/U10YTb); 其他的主要教派, 另外如

凱文教派 (Calvinism; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvinism; 

路德教派 (Lutheranism ; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lutheranism), 

聖公會 (Anglican Communiion : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglican_Communion

            (Anglicanism : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglicanism)

美以美會 (衛斯理公會) (Methodism : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/; http://goo.gl/VJGNT;http://www.thecmechurch.org/history.htm;                                

                http://christianity.about.com/od/devotionals/a/Methodist.htm ) 

有一長輩曾對我說过, 西洋人靠一本聖經治國牧民, 而中國人尊崇的孔教,那是皇帝老子拿來統治萬民的御用工具,

所以在學校書本上學的,一進社會,立刻死當; 不若西洋基督教聖經教人要 "靈巧像蛇";

中國諺語和聖經箴言 http://www.answering-islam.org/chinese/topic19/tc-19-108.html

馬太福音 10:16 <靈巧像蛇，馴良像鴿子。> http://cnbible.com/csbt/matthew/10.htm

整個一套西洋史,就是整套的宗教戰爭史,想搞懂洋人,那對基督教,天主教及猶太教不能不有一些基本常識,

那可能對與洋人打起交道來,才能得心應手;
