Is Christianity a religion of tolerance?
I've been wrestling with this for years and I've come to this conclusion. If the Old testament is true, then the New Testament is false and if the New Testament is true, then the Old Testament is false.
Intolerant Christians.

Why is Christianity, fastest growing religion, in Sub-Saharan and Southern African region?
Because they're accepting the truth as told to them by the true children of God. If you're so concerned about them why don't you get all the other Muslims in this section that are as filthy liars as you and go there and teach them more lies.
Oh Muslim Knight don't think you'll ever fool me again. You never thought I was a good person and that was proved by the question you asked about me the other day and giving BA to the one who insulted me the worse. I am also not talking about all Muslims here because there are some that are very respectful, but the majority are foul mouthed imbeciles who get their jollies from insulting other people and lying about them which is something the idiot who asked this question has been doing all day not to mention for at least a year spreading her filthy lies and hatred.

Is Christianity the FIRST religion that recognized that all human beings are of equal worth and should therefore be treated equally?
The Buddha did not teach equality in the manner I believe your atheist commentator meant. The Buddha denied the caste system, and therefore inborn traits which segregated one spiritually from others. However, he also felt questions of philosophy, including rights, were largely mythical, and thereby, irrelevant. The Buddha would not have claimed one man is equal to another, only that he is not inherently unequal.
Such questions are not important in Buddhist thought. Whether one is or is not equal to another man is unimportant, since we are all bound to samsara, the cycle of life and rebirth, in one form or another, and the philosophical questions of this world will not free one from this cycle. To empty one of such questions and concerns would actually have been the more probable view of the Buddha, and if asked on it would probably have said as such.
That being said, Our Lord did not advocate true equality either. He, and others in the Holy Scriptures, did say that God loved some more than others, but that He does love all. There will be those who are greater in the kingdom of Heaven, however, than they are on earth, and vice-versa. That all man are equal in essence is more a result of the Philosphes, the "Enlightenment," and the Declaration of Independence of the United States, than on the Holy Scriptures.

Christianity - The only religion that makes sense of the world?
Why shouldnt it make more sense than anything else to get acquainted with one claiming to be the Author of life plus everything and the ONLY ONE able to give us the ability to overcome death and enjoy eternal life? Could we also get short term benefits by exercising faith in Him?
