@james16181001 1. I can't see how the belief in one God "helps" the poor.

2. Christians never revolted against the rich people, they didn't revolt against their persecutors either.

3. The poor were the majority in the empire, but they were not all Christians. I repeat that the Christians when Con...

@FyerDenYourEx Yeah, that's right. Every man has his own religion, that's what I said too. But you used the term "official religion" that refers to the state religion & that was your fault.

@LNBlack29 What do you mean "Achilles fought for vanity"? Achilles fights for the greatest thing a man can earn, kleos (κλέος). It means that all the world will hear his name and that's the only way a man can come close to immortality. Hector is a man, Achilles is a hero.

@Kaeseschweif @sigilopator Don't pretend that the fall of Constantinople at the hands of the Crusaders was an unfortunate event. The whole case is far more deeper. The whole ideology of the papist Western Europe was built upon the hostility towards Rhōmania. As long as the true Roman empire ("Byz...

@slayer007killer Because whatever happened in the past affects greatly our lives until today. That's why people who don't know history are like patients with amnesia.

@aladerive If Islam is not to cause any harm to the creatures, then why did Muhammad (the last & greatest prophet of Allah) attack Medina?

@unfukkkmee Can you tell where is my propaganda? I said something simple and true: that the emperors of the so-called Byzantine empire used the term ROMAN in their titles. If this is false, proove it! Also I cannot understand why this simple truth is against the greek history. Greeks have to unde...

@mystisme The question we have to anwser is historical, not metaphysical: Did the pre-Constantine Christians believe in Jesus' divinity?

The quote from John prooves that Jesus was considered God by his followers since the 1st cent. Isaiah says he saw God Himself (Isaiah, 6), he doesn't say he saw...

@epirotas There was indeed a tradition that the royal family of Macedon (Argead) came from Peloponnese (Temenids). It seems rather odd that Thucydides or the Hellanodikai would have accepted such a theory without enough prooves.

It is also proven that Macedonians spoke doric greek, the dialect of...

@NeoTheo9 The only language the Macedonians spoke was greek. Is there any epigraph without greek language and alphabet in Macedonia? They worshipped greek gods, had greek customs (similar to the mycaenean ones), traditions, names etc.

In fact Macedonia began from the borders with Thessaly and its...

@ninjamojo711 Horus was Isis' husband in some myths? It's the first time I hear that. Where did you find that?

About Horus & Osiris, they remain 2 completely different characters, they represent different things (life and death, sun and earth). Pharaoh is Horus (ruler of this world) and later be...

@Jononutoob You are wrong: in both literature and technology the Christian Romans (Byzantines) were great.

The ecclesiastic literature is gorgeous, universally recognized for its theological richness, its melodiousness & its literary value (Romanos, John of Damascus etc). The secular is not widel...

@Russkyparen1 I think a woman's wedding is not enough to say that Russia is the New Rhōmania. Besides, Romans never believed in royal blood theories.

Rhōmania had some characteristics:

1.Roman law

2.Roman imperial ideal

3.Its centroid to the hellenistic east

4.Bilingualism (greek, latin) with the...

@ykamb I didn't speak about a greeklish alphabet. I said that some Greeks write their greek language using the latin alphabet. Is this false? You have to understand that the alphabet is something different than the language.

E.g. if I write the word "mahi" (μάχη=battle) which language am I writi...

@raifthemad Leonidas said to his soldiers: "Fellow soldiers! I recommend you to eat now sparingly, for the food not cumber our movements. Tonight we will dine richly in the realms of Pluto"

@LatinPrayers Most heresies came from the East because the East is a place where a lot of cultures coexisted and affected each other: Greeks, Egyptians, various philosophical schools etc. It was easier for the truth to be mixed with misrepresentations.

About the filioque, we may disagree about i...

@PirgosiFamilija Not made by Greeks?

The wonders are 7: Colossus, Zeus' statue, Pyramids, Mausoleum, Pharos, Gardens, Temple of Artemis.

Only the pyramids & the gardens had nothing to do with the Greeks.

The mausoleum was made by greek architects and sculptors at the expense of Artemisia who wasn...

@danpescatori I don't think that Maxentius would be able to destroy Christianity. Until this battle (312 AD) all the Roman emperors were pagans & most of them (Nero, Domitian, Trajan, M. Aurelius, S. Severus, Maximinus, Decius, Valerian, Diocletian, Galerius) had launched great persecutions again...

@TheJam1192 Ofc, Constantine was no god; he couldn't change the flow of history. When the Turks came (700 yrs after his death) they caused a lot of problems and finally (1,100 yrs after his death) the took the City. But there are so many events between the 2 periods that we cannot say that Consta...

@MrJohnnyrace I see you didn't write anything else about science and I'm happy for that.

Ofc I didn't say you need religion to know how to behave. In fact, if the Church was just a moral code I would say the same; I deeply hate moralism & pietism. But all the christian saints & teachers base thei...

@Onetruthrgv There is a prayer in the liturgy of John Chrysostom that maybe answers your question. It is said when the presbyter cuts the Lamb in pieces: "The Lamb of God is dismembered and partitioned, He who is dismembered but not divided, He who is always eaten & never spent, but sanctifies th...

@victoriabenn About the "dead saints", I have to remind you Jesus' words:

Mark, 12:26-27

[...]how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living[...].

If Abraham, Isaac and Jab...

Ι've studied the greek & latin literature and I assure everyone that NOWHERE in these texts it's written that Dionysus was virgin-born. His father Zeus impregnated his mother naturally (intercourse). Most texts say his mother was Semele, a few say it was Persephone or Demeter.

Also, the date has ...

@trythinkingnow Constantine supported Christianity the same as he supported paganism (or a bit more, if you want). After the council of Nicaea he built 4 temples: 2 christian & 2 pagans. As a man, he favored Christianity, that's true. But he didn't want to disturb the peace and the stability of h...

@Fisica2100 The revolt and the war started in 66 AD and ended in 73 AD. The first well known persecution of the Christians ordered by an Emperor was that of the year 64 AD. There are a lot of other proofs about Christianity earlier, but I use refer only to this. How is it possible for the Jesus m...

@OKandNOWwhat To be sincere, I thought that you implied such thing, because you said that the title "pope"=father contradicts Jesus' words. I see that I was wrong. Have a nice day!

@Laz24 To blame Constantine for what the Crusaders or the Inquisition did it's like blaming the man who discovered the iron are responsible for all the wars.

Also, you should know that Constantine legalized Christianity while Christians were still a minority in his empire. A political leader pref...
