Muslim Rep. Ellison: No Oath on Bible

Sure they were, but what are they now -- the Greeks? Their classical tradition became the basis of Catholic Scholasticism and Thomist theology.:dance2:

The christainization of greece didn't happen untill long after their fall in power! Their greatest achivements were made in absence of christanity!

But....Christianity aped them. And, WHAT HAVE THEY BEEN EVER SINCE THE DANG OLD DAY???????????????????? How about zip? Can you live with 'zip'? I didn't think so.

Oh, HELL no. There will be NO ISLAMIC POLITICIANS IN MY COUNTRY. No frig'n way.:rocketwhore::whipping::AR15firing::banghead::rant2::FU2::devilheadbang::afro::ban:

Christanity arrived about the same time as the collapse of Roman Empire and thus the begining of the dark ages, if thats what you meant by aped...

Discrimanatory polotics is the brood of arrogance and ignorance!

You know so little. Please.....allow me to SCHOOL YOU, again. Christianity hit the Empire in AD 33, the year in which Jesus died. Peter and Paul took it to Rome by the AD 50s. THE EMPIRE IN THE WEST CAVED IN IN AD 476, dammit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do the math. DO THE DANG OLD MATH.

Somebody hold me back. Hold me back. I'm gonna gouge out his eyes and *****-**** him to death!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You're not ignorant. You ignint. That's worse, Homie.:rofl:

Christanity started before the collapse of Roman Empire but did not gain popularity untill the fall of Rome escpecially with the Roman emporer (Constantine) ...

ooooh!!! your so smart {sarcasm}

i'm so glad you're able to mispronunciate english words, and degrade their value in a similar fashion. Hooooray for you!!! :thumbup:

You're getting warmer, but you're still 'ignint'. No....Christianity did not conquer all of Rome at the time of the fall. But...it grew up within the Empire beginning in AD 33, which accounts for almost half the Empire's life-span (500 BC - AD 476).

no it didn't conquer rome but it coincided with the collapse of the empire, they may not be linked at all but it does render you argument about the connection of christanity and civilization as a moot point!

Wrong again. It didn't 'coincide' with the fall of Rome. Math....math....basic math. Rome fell in the West in AD 476. Paul and Peter had taken Christianity to Rome by the mid-50s. Hmm....let's see: 476 - 55 = 421 years. That's a long time, by my standards. I haven't lived for 421 years in a long, long time. Hell, my country's only 231 years old, and we think we're all that and a handful of nuts.:bangin:

again, christanity didn't become popularized untill near the end of the roman empire!

Fall of Rome
Between AD 395 (when the Visigothic leader Alaric began to ravage inside the Roman imperial frontiers in Thrace and Macedonia) and 495 (when Theodoric the Great, king of the Ostrogoths, was proclaimed king of Italy

Constantine I The Great, Emperor

Born: c. 275
Birthplace: Naissus (modern Serbia)
Died: 337
Best Known As: First Christian ruler of the Roman Empire

NOTICE The Roman Empire fell 58 years after the death of the first christian emperor

Wrong again. In 395 in was made the official religion of Rome. To say it didn't begin to become 'popular' before that is very misleading. You just hate Christianity (as well as America) and will twist everything to that effect. NOPE. GO BACK AND DO IT AGAIN.:thumbdown:

and to say emporer constantine didn't make a significant impact is foolhardy! The official designation of the religion has naut to do with it's popularity or it's power!

I didn't say that. The bottom line is that you hate Christianity and refuse to acknowledge the positive role it had in building Western Civilization. I'm done trying to correct your erroneous views. :no:

how did christianity benefit ANY nation, please provide proof.

and I am a christian before any one goes off the handle and starts name calling.
