Hypocrisy of Monotheistic Faiths.
We can mock your God, but you should not.
Romans never persecuted others for belief. They just added Greeks and other God into their own.
Rome didn’t constantly persecute Christians and they did not do it for intrinsically religious reasons: Christians lived ups and downs during the Roman Age and they were sometimes heavily persecuted because of their strict monotheism, which undermined Roman tolerance of religions and pax deorum. Moreover, I cannot really understand how and why dying as a martyr should be seen as a sort of virtue: you’re literally losing man😂 not fighting something (because you’re not strong enough) and sugarcoating it as a win is slave morality at its finest
the bible prophecied the division of rome as part of end times prophecy
I don’t believe in any religion but major respect to this man for fighting for what he believed in, that took a lot of bravery.
9:35 the historian who said that Cleopatra was black
Roman Empire didn’t like Christianity in first place, It’s the effort of St peter & st Paul that Christianity headquarters opened in Rome, Romans where only interested in fighting and killing for entertainment
Please, I there a movie that captures these events?
“To live is Christ, and to die is gain.”
Nah….I’m convinced The Romans created the divide….they used all of their BRAIN POWER.
The only topic/subject at the time was:
POWER.
THINK.
Concept of monotheism is fake, everything the story os Israel is madeup, only thing is this was an experiment first in Egypt then in Israel, to have single God in place of many, because that would made it easy to control the population and unite them,
There had been no one named Moses and nothing of that sort had happened,
All those Gods which Romans made since Rome has Democracy and Anarchy at the same time, King could pressuize the parliament to pass a bll to make his horse a God like Caligula did.
and you know Islam, the founder oh man so many wrong deeds he did and still so much fan following for the cult.
Any of the Indian religion or Chinese cults are good.
They actually teach acceptance and show that multiple thoughts can co-exist, so the supermacy based on religion was never followed in India, that is why Parsis and Jews, Bahais survived.
Our main focus is on Karmas, God is not actually the most powerful kind of thing, we just want to become Ideal just like they are so the character is worshipped and the Idol makes you focus more
Crazy that there’s 1 Million views and I’m the only one that hit the Like Button
Next better video: “How Protestantism divided the Christianity”
Modern man cannot comprehend the level of faith that the ancient Christians had.
Yes amen Jesus
The early Church father’s
Whenever I see the “H” i have to question it’s accuracy.
Aliens looking down at us like yeah let’s get out of here humans are crazy
If romans would have used their brains nicely we wouldn’t had cults of christanity and islam.
I’m sorry, but nothing spreads that fast unless there’s some truth
Christianity never divided any empire or kingdoms or any religions but Christians went on persecution but holy spirit in Christianity worked and many empires or kingdoms became closer to Bible teachings. Hence Christianity spread worldwide but Christianity divided into many divisions as per human culture and customs🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Christianity has been a disaster for Europeans. It’s not our tale. It’s the tale of another people who claim “their” god is our god, but god choose them.
The earliest Christians forced and killed anyone who didn’t convert.. what a wicked religion.. people are lost
Lmao humans need fantasy stories to live and die for.
Look up the history of Perpetual and Felcitias
I feel like some highly-educated people making comments on these persecutions shouldn’t even be doing that
That last professor still thinks cleopatra is black. I believe nothing she says
How Christianity continues the 2000 year lie. Jesus was not a real person. There is zero physical evidence of his existence on Earth. The Bible America and Western nations use was written by King James of England. Religions, all of them, are predicated on fear, lies and control. There was never any god sitting in utter nothingness, that suddenly decided to create something from absolute nothing. Religion is a weapon of mass destruction.
God will give you
God is beyond just real! 😢
Read about the Saxons you won’t have as high as opinion of Christianity. .. everyone of today is so easily manipulated by it.
Rome hijacked Christianity with the Roman Catholic Church, which is by definition and theological practice Satan’s counterfeit Christianity. The real Christians are Bible believing Christians-they are not Catholics! Catholics are pagans whom have been brainwashed into thinking they are Christians. This is because Catholics are biblically ignorant!
I consider Early christians to be my brothers just like i consider all muslims my brother.
Thank you early Christians.. its you that we now know of the joy you have in knowing Jesus ☝️
The Roman Catholic religion has NEVER been Christian. Ephesians 2:8–9.
I watch AGORA movie and I can understand
If the Romans never became Christians, they wouldn’t have fallen in 476
The christians the rome killed was Sabbath keepers then rome made a false church called the catholic church that change the saturday sabbath to sunday and other laws.
Christians used to justify the destruction of pagan temples, claiming to be reclaiming the property. They enacted various anti-pagan laws, including those forbidding pagan sacrifice and the worship of pagan images, punishable by death, and mandating the closure of all temples. Anti-pagan policies were repeatedly enforced, and penalties were increased over time. The rapid decline of European paganism can be attributed to the intolerance of Christianity. European paganism was met with intolerance from the Church.
proud to be a Christian
makes me cry😢
Can anybody tell me, These romam empire clips take from which movie or series?
First the early Christians were killed by Romans, centuries later they killed the non believers and others in inquisitions during the age of discovery, all this is bad yet I don’t see a difference among all these groups.
St. Ignatius of Antioch, the disciple of Apostle John who coined the name Catholic to Jesus’ followers. It’s good that he’s featured here.
The people who thought this up turned mankind from his greatness and strengths and overcoming into a self pitying embarrassment . Now live by Christian values without Jesus or thought of heaven. That’s what Christian philosophy is.
But look at the brighter side
We had a whole dynasty of women rulers that no Infidel can produce

Imagine that you believe in something that doesn’t exist so much that you want to get torn apart by lions for it
Jesus is only son of god
He only show us who is god
Hallelujah 🙌
