Homosexuality, is regarded as shameful by barbarians and by those who live under despotic governments just as philosophy is regarded as shameful by them, because it is apparently not in the interest of such rulers to have great ideas engendered in their subjects, or powerful friendships or passionate love-all of which homosexuality is particularly apt to produce.
Plato
"The Catholic Church is not the oldest of my opponents, though! I was old when it was young, when its members hid in the catacombs of Rome and painted fishes on their chest so they could tell one from another. I was strong when this simpering club of bread eaters and wine - drinkers who venerate the sheep - savior was week.My rites were old when the rites of your church were unconceived." Barlow - Salem's Lot - Stephen King.
Catholic Church was established at 3rd-4th century.
Christians don't hide at catacombs. Catacombs were usual meeting points.
Because 2000 years ago the astronomic/astrologic age of Pisces starts they choose it at their sign (now we have the age of Aquarius).
Every 2000 years the (astronomic) spring equinox enters the previous sign of the zodiac.
There were "Christian" sects since 200 B.C. until 400 A.D. Except one all with sexual liberty. The one are the well-known Christian Jews emmigrating from Palestinia to Rome. At 400th century this sect with Augustinus won the fight against last liberal Christian sect whose leader was condemned to be burn at the stake. There is an exact date at 4th centure (I don't know) which marks beginning of Dark Age at Europe.[/QUOTE]The CHURCH, right, but before that, the Christians were already there, in secret. The early communities were a jewish sect, each community (which means each town) had his own bishop that was selected from the members, men and women!
The catacombs were tombs, so no one went there as long as it wasn't a funeral, guess why they met there... because no one was following them there. The early Christians hid in the catacombs!
Wrong. The fish was (still is) the sign of the Christians because the ancient-greek word for fish is ICHTHYS which can be used as an acronym for
IΗΣΟΎΣ Iēsous „Jesus“
ΧΡΙΣΤΌΣ Christós „Christ“
ΘΕΟΎ Theoú „Gods“
ΥΙΌΣ Hyiós „Son“
ΣΩΤΉΡ Sōtér „Savior"
This is right and has nothing to do with the Catholics![]()
