Analytical History & Evolutionary Economics Chen Ping April 2, 2005 The Myth of Christian

Complex Role of Religion How a failed hero became a ruling God (Comparing 关羽 with Jesus)? Bifurcation of conflicting forces: suppress or adapt? Interaction between religion and government: balance of power or conspiracy? Role in mixed economy: community base division of labor

Stages of Christian Movement Jesus, a Jewish fraction devoted to moral justice and life after death Paul relaxed entry barrier (dietary law and male circumcision) to attract more followers > separating Christian from Jewish Combine warship with dinner together to develop community base Spread from rural to urban area, from low to high class Spiritual movement against Roman power: from illegal to state religion Puzzling facts: grass-root movement without strong leader and military power, political failure led to spiritual success

Three Pillars of Western Civilization Greek-Roman culture Christian tradition German feudal system Western culture cannot be characterized simply by individualism, freedom, or democracy. It is a mixed economy with market, state, and NGO sector which includes church, universities, and other non-government non-profit organizations The rise of city state, religious movements, and feudal system was driven both by individualism and public concern. Human history strongly indicates that the human nature is social animal rather than solitary animal with infinite greed
