Xueta Christianity (cristianisme xueta) is a syncretic Judæo-Christian minority group existing in the island of Majorca, Spain, preached by Cayetano Martí Valls and followed by Xueta people, who are supposedly descendents of persecuted Jews who were converted to Christianity.(Spanish) (Spanish)
Famous quotes containing the word christianity:
“But, with whatever exception, it is still true that tradition characterizes the preaching of this country; that it comes out of the memory, and not out of the soul; that it aims at what is usual, and not at what is necessary and eternal; that thus historical Christianity destroys the power of preaching, by withdrawing it from the exploration of the moral nature of man; where the sublime is, where are the resources of astonishment and power.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
