Yea I do think he is only talking about the differences but I would also add that Ethiopia lasted out because of its geography

I thought Islam impacted and pushed Christianity out of Africa more? Am I terribly wrong?

Julissa, you're right, Islam definitely pushed Christianity out of much of Africa. However, Strayer mentioned 2 major exceptions (that Asia generally didn't have), one being in Egypt and the other Ethiopia. In Egypt it was in part because Islam is slightly more tolerant of other religions, and Christian communities could still practice their faith if they payed a tax (though later it declined during the crusades). Ethiopia was protected by its mountainous geography and far position away from centers of Islamic power.

Okay so this isn't a margin question, this is more of making sure that I'm understanding the first subsection correctly. Is Strayer saying that Christianity evolved from Islam?

No. Strayer is saying that Christianity was disappearing in Africa and Eurasia because of the spreading of Islam. Remember that Islam emerged a couple hundred years after Christianity so how could it have evolved from Islam?

If its not a margin question then why did he put it in there? The margin question is definitely referring to the 2 subsections following it about the Asian Christianity and African Christianity which Jackie identified.

Sebastian, it's great that you're on the forum. Keep it up! Unfortunately you have committed a grievous sin my son. You're being vague, vague, vague! :-)

While I'm here, I think this is an interesting one as well: How does the evolution of the Christian world in the third-wave era compare with that of Tang and Song dynasty China and of the Islamic world? My kinda question - context and all that right future DBQ writers?

I did not include points about the Western Crusaders and the Orthodox view of Roman Catholics as barbarians. I did, however, include:

Actually your second point, Olivia is partly true. Nestorius, the bishop of Constantinople, argued this point but it was not a view in the Eastern Orthodox Church then, or today. It was transferred to a Persian church and then spread India, China, and Arabia. (sorry I'm Orthodox)

This isn't a margin question but I was mostly wondering if I was understanding this correctly. The Byzantine empire was rooted in the faith of Eastern Orthodox which believed that the Church was tied to the state correct? But later Strayer says that Eastern Orthodox leaders rejected the claims that Roman popes were to be the sole authority for all Christians. I'm not really sure what he's saying there because isn't the Byzantine Empire following Eastern Orthodox Christianity which believes that the state is tied to the church? So what does Strayer mean by saying that Eastern Orthodoxy rejected claim that popes were sole authority of the people?

Strayer is alluding to the idea that the RC pope speaks for ALL of Christianity. The is the first essential argument in the faith, who is really in charge versus whether two different view points are valid. Each side has their opinion. No religion is monolithic, homogeneous, or in complete agreement.

Well, the last point applies to both, so technically it applies to Byzantium. However, if this were to be on the test, I would not count it because this question is clearly asking for the kind of specificity you gave in the rest of your answer, and the last point doesn't.

I think you should include it, as it does give a reason why the Roman Order was failing, and how it started to need replacing, if that makes sense

I mean your right it does explain why it was failing but that's not the question, so I mean its up to you to put it on there but I wouldn't

BinghamWelcome class of 2020. Some years students collaborate in this space effectively, some years not so much. One thing I know, collaboration significantly enhances learning. If you want access to my thoughts, this is the collaboration space to use. Most people propose an answer to margin questions, big picture question, or anything else related to managing Strayer. Other people can then comment leading to a stronger answer. I'll keep an eye on these pages, and pop in when I think you need me. Archives
