What does Christianity have to offer in comparison to the liberation promised by Eastern religions?
>>
Eastern religions offer some silly self-absorbed idea of transcendence.

Christ offers a true life away from death and sin.

eternal life with a being that absolutely loves you, more than anything else can

False liberation.

Neo-platonic Christianity pretty much offers similar things to Eastern Religions but with much greater depth and a deeper connection with God.

>liberation promised by Eastern religions
Christianity doesn't promise 'liberation' because it's not a religion of slaves. Christianity promises salvation instead. See the difference?

It offers a reliance on your perception of a higher power rather than seeking that strength and refuge from yourself.

>>8990291
Nietzsche was clueless.

>>8990285
Childish oversimplification of multiple religions at once doesn't make yours seem any better. You are no better than atheists talking about skydaddy and the flying spaghetti monster.
>>
>>8990185
God doesn't have to "offer" you shit. What is this, a religions' free market where you buy the one that's got the most bang for your buck?

Why do you believe in God if not to get your expected reward?

>>8990293
Why is that preferable?
>>
>>8990185
Nothing. Eastern religion involves examining the contents of your own consciousness whereas Christianity makes you a slave to an invisble monster Yahweh, who reads ypur thoughts and condemns you to punishment.

Not even some the most notable works of, for example, Chinese medical literature have been fully translated into English. The same applies to the Arabic and Indian traditions, not to mention all the lost works or innovations never even written down from early civilizations. Posting this image is like wearing a sign that says "I will believe anything /pol/ tells me and have no capacity for critical thinking."
