A:Actually, Jesus was not at all famous. Not one single contemporary reference to Jesus has ever been found, attesting that even his mission and the events surrounding his death went largely unnoticed. Jesus is known only for his teachings and the miracles described in Christian literature, all of which were written after his death.

What sets Christianity apart from other religions?

There is no one single characteristic that sets Christianity apart from other religions. Christianity is monotheistic, but so are Judaism, Islam, Sikhism, Zoroastrianism and other religions. Christianity shares the abrahamic God with Judaism and Islam. Christianity was largely spread by imperial edict and conquest, but the early spread of Islam has many parallels. Christianity teaches high moral principles, but so also do other religions. In Christianity, Jesus came to earth and was born of a virgin, but virgin birth was common among the ancient religions. The Zoroastrian Saoshyant, who will also be born of a virgin, has many parallels with Jesus, but has not yet come to earth. The Christian Jesus was crucified, but again, there were other gods, goddesses and demigods who were crucified. Perhaps the one thing that sets Christianity apart is that it is the dominant religion of the powerful and prosperous West. This provides for some a sense that Christianity was destined to dominate the world.
