基督教是压迫性的吗？——回应社会公义的批评

核心论证 Core Argument

世俗社会常批评基督教是压迫性的——特别在性别、性取向和殖民历史方面。但这种批评忽略了几个关键事实：（1）现代人权和社会公义的概念本身植根于基督教传统——人人按上帝形象被造的信念是平等和尊严的基础；（2）历史上废奴运动、女性教育、医院和大学的建立都由基督徒主导；（3）基督教对权力的批判比任何世俗运动更为彻底——十字架颠覆了一切人类权力结构。

Secular society often critiques Christianity as oppressive — particularly regarding gender, sexuality, and colonial history. But this critique overlooks key facts: (1) Modern human rights and social justice concepts are rooted in the Christian tradition — the belief that all humans are made in God's image is the foundation of equality and dignity; (2) Historically, the abolition movement, women's education, hospitals, and universities were led by Christians; (3) Christianity's critique of power is more radical than any secular movement — the Cross subverts all human power structures.
