Manichaeism was long treated as a christian heresy , but it is more clearly understood as an independent religion , drawing on the diverse resources of christianity , zoroastrianism , and buddhism 摩尼教很長時期被認為是基督教的異端,但更加明確地表明,這是一種獨立的宗教,吸收了基督教,瑣羅亞斯德教和佛教等不同資源。

Manichaeism disappeared in the west in about the 6th century , although its doctrines reappeared in the teachings of the bogomils , albigenses , and other sects during the middle ages 摩尼教大約在六世紀消失于西方,盡管它的教義仍然出現在波各米勒教派,阿比爾教派和其他中世紀時期的教派上。

The essence of manichaeism was the principle of absolute dualism : the primal conflict between god , represented by light and spirit , and satan , represented by darkness and the material world 摩尼教的本質是絕對的二元論法則:神和撒旦最初的斗爭,表現為光明與精神世界和黑暗與物質世界。

Manichaeism survived into the middle ages through such sects as the paulicians and cathari , which probably developed from the original tradition 摩尼教在中世紀通過保羅派和卡特里派等教派而幸存,大概很可能是從最初的傳統發展起來的。

Because of its attitude toward the material world , manichaeism regarded evil as a physical rather than a moral entity 因為摩尼教的態度是朝向物質世界,它把邪惡看成是一種物質身體,而不是道德上的實體。

The gospel of mani , written on blackened papyrus , is the last surviving evidence of a now - defunct religion , manichaeism 摩尼福音書,寫在變黑的紙草文書上,是死了的宗教? ?摩尼教的最后現存證據。

Augustine challenged manichaeism by denying mani ' s apostleship and condemning his rejection of biblical truth 奧古斯丁挑戰摩尼教,否認摩尼的使徒身份,譴責他拒絕圣經的真理。

Manichaeism , second to buddhism , was at the zenith of its influence in china , after 70 - odd years ' development 經過70余年的發展,摩尼教在中國的勢力達到頂峰,僅次于佛教。

After that , manichaeism in china kept losing connection to its counterpart in middle asia 此后,傳入中國的摩尼教與中亞地區的摩尼教團失去了聯系。

In the east , manichaeism survived until the 13th century 在東方,摩尼教仍然保留著,直到十三世紀。
