evangelizing religions

not tied to any particular ethnic group

based on appropriation from judaism & viewing themselves as the inheritors when WE STILL EXIST

long histories of oppression & murder of jews

spread via colonization & conquest

believe jesus to be more than "eh just a Jewish dude. had some good ideas."

heavy emphasis on hell, the afterlife & punishment of unbelievers

While not being tied a specific Ethnic Group is technically equally true of both, in practice Islam is an Arabic Religion.

Again Supersessionism is a not Universal belief among Christians. In fact the Christians most inclined to use "Judeo-Christian" right now are explicitly the ones who reject that doctrine and call it a Heresy.

Islam spread by Conquest from while it's founding Prophet still lived, Christianity was a Grass Roots underground inherently Pacifist Religion for 300 years before becoming a State Religion anywhere, and even for centuries after that the Church of the East still spread that way in Asia.

There are Christians who reject Evangelism in the sense you're thinking of...defining characteristics of the Primitive Baptists and Strict Baptists

Ok. Fine. But the religion as a whole seems very much keen on evangelism. There are parts of Christianity that do a lot of things. As you noted, they're defining characteristics -- mainstream Christianity doesn't do that. Mainstream Christianity evangelizes/proselytizes (I'm not entirely clear on the difference).

in practice Islam is an Arabic religion

It's...really not? Most estimates I can find suggest ~15-20 percent of Muslims are Arab.

Supersessionism is not a Universal belief among Christians

...The belief that the Tanakh was superseded by Jesus' teachings isn't universal? Are...are there Christians who keep kosher now? I'm pretty sure it says to do that everywhere, for forever.

Christianity was a Grass Roots underground inherently Pacifist Religion for 300 years before becoming a State Religion anywhere,

Listen. I'm not talking about Christianity in the past. If you look at how Christianity spread, historically, it was imposed top-down, the state exerting its influence to force others to convert.

Also, I don't think you understand what the word "underground" means. According to Christian historian Paul Johnson, "By 250 [CE] the Church in Rome was rich enough to support a bishop, forty-six presbyters, seven deacons, seven sub-deacons, forty-two acolytes and fifty-two exorcists". This falls squarely within your three hundred years. Pardon me, but that...doesn't seem underground (or, for that matter, "Grass Roots"), and it says a lot about how fucking privileged Christianity has been historically that you seem to see not being a majority (at most generous) or even not being the official state religion (with all the coercive power that implies) as being "underground".

Forever is always a mistranslation of Olam which mean An Age or The Age, like Aionos in Greek.

There are Torah Keeping Christians, but that's not mainly who I'm talking about, The Torah itself acknowledges that Gentiles believes in God don't necessarily have all those same Laws, it's a Covenant thing. Do you think all those Ninevehites at the end of Jonah started keeping The Full Torah?

*pinches nose*

Fellas, is it cultural appropriation to inherit your family's culture but you don't pass the blood quantum test?

I have difficulty managing the stresses of daily life without becoming overwhelmed and debilitated by anxiety. That is disabling. A drug that blunts my anxiety response is an adaptive tool I choose to use to manage my disability.

I don't have to use that tool. I didn't always use that tool. When I choose to forgo that tool or don't have access to it, I just Am More Anxious.

I also choose to wear eyeglasses to improve my eyesight. I could choose not to wear them, but then I wouldn't be able to see very well. It's okay not to see very well (plenty of people don't), but especially in a highly visually-oriented society, I would rather wear glasses and see things.
