  Nihilism and existentialism seem to be alike. One is based on attitude and the other where significance is created within. more depending on what is within oneself.

  monotheism and naturalism seem to be dissimilar. god is involved in the universe for the prior view but the later one seem more like factors have to somehow align together?

  From what I understand, I believe Judaism and Christianity are most similar because they believe in the same God and both accept the Old Testament as the word of God. Christianity and Nihilism are the two least alike. A Christian believes in God, but a nihilist believes in their self.
