  • Christianity is a monotheistic religion (or group of religions) based on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Together with Judaism, Samaritanism and several minor heresies, it is an Abrahamic religion. It is mostly differing from the Judaic religion in several minor practises and the fact that besides the Old Testament, there's a series of books, the New Testament, that are also considered canonical. The mainstream Christian belief is that Jesus is the son of God and saviour of humankind. Christians therefore refer to Jesus as Christ or the Messiah. However, the status of God is controversial and divides even the most adherent communities of Christianity (the Nestorian Faith in Ctesiphon and the Patriarchate of Constantinople) , and has caused the main schisms of history (the Nestorian schism that took away Mesopotamia and Syria due to Nestorius believing on Jesus and God being separate entities, and its antithesis, Miaphysitism, which stated that they were a single being and took away Egypt and Palestine). There are hundreds of denominations, or "Faithts", of Christianity. However, four provide the majority of the Christian faith; the Chalcedonian Faith (most often considered mainstream), the Coptic Faith (based in Alexandria and Miaphysite), the Faith of the East (based in Ctesiphon, and Nestorian) and the Medinan Faith (based in Mecca). While these Faiths bicker amongst theological disputes (with the Medinans and Nestorians being especially considered heretical) but they all consider each other more valid than most of the other religions, and often cooperate (with the Chalcedonian Church, for example, having sanctified Muhammad, the founder of the Medinan Faith, in the early XIII Century).
