I know that many think they qualify (or disqualify, according to taste) to the Greek Aristotle's "Christian" is a true boutade, and that the whole question may seem a joke or a provocation or a an idle nonsense that does not know escribir.Pero is not so, because there are many priests who, not content with having a saint for each day of the year, wanted to Christianize, "canonized" or sprinkling holy water Macedonian aristotelian for services rendered (without consent, of course) to the Catholic doctrine of Holy Tomás.Ahora hands well, maintaining that Aristotle was a Christian is wrong, because: 1-
Aristotle lived in the fourth century BC (384-322 BC) and therefore it was impossible to know the doctrine of Christ and Christianity if not met, as would truism, it was impossible for him to become.
2-Catholics say that, as Aristotle believed in God, and that fact alone was a Christian, but that is wrong and believe in God quetambién Muslims and Jews but not for that we say they are Christians, right?. Deists also as Lessing and Voltaire believed in God, but they did not believe in any institutional religion. The same, mutatis mutandis, the wicked can say that Aristotle was accused of impiety to the gods in their época.Por other hand, to qualify as a Christian is not enough to believe in God must also believe that Jesus was the Son of God and performed miracles, the immortality of the soul, the second coming of Christ and the resurrection of the dead, etc.. plus all those beliefs and dogmas were unknown to Aristotle, because he lived in a time before Christianity, more so then qualify to aristotelian a Christian is a-historical nonsense.
3-The God of Aristotle only resembles the Christian God who is infinite, but in all other respects it differs from it because: a) For Christians, God created the world and is omniscient, in contrast to Aristotle, the motor still not only created the world, but neither conoce.b) For Christians, God knows and loves God to men, whereas for Aristotle does not know God loves anyone but himself is known and thought mismo.c thought itself) For Christians God is relegated, linked to the men that made possible the religion (of religare), whereas for Aristotle God is not associated with anyone that there was an infinite distance between God and humanity. Then the Aristotelian God not only has nothing to do with religion, but destroys it to make way for a Deism that is only the prelude of atheism.
