Christianity, along with Judaism and Islam, hails from the region of the Jordan river. But it is unlikely that Christians, Jews and Muslims would like their faiths being lumped together under such an artificial, unscriptural category as "Jordanism." |
A fair point.
However, I have to other points to make:
1) Hinduism did not conquer most of the planet.
2) Christianity, Judaism, and Islam are artificial, unscriptural categories, too. But we don't seem to have a problem using them.
