Key Scriptures and spiritual guidance on comparison
Η Βίβλος αναφέρεται σε πολλά μέρη σχετικά με τη σύγκριση και τον ανταγωνισμό. Συχνά μας προτρέπει να εστιάζουμε στην αποδοχή και την εκτίμηση του εαυτού μας και των άλλων, αντί να συγκρίνουμε τον εαυτό μας με τους άλλους. Η ιδέα της μοναδικότητας και της αξίας κάθε ατόμου προβάλλεται σε πολλά κείμενα.
