Elsie: "We sure have a LOT of words in this thread, talking ABOUT religion, but hardly ANYTHING Scriptural being posted. Strange... "

You might re-check the thread's title:

"Constantine Has Been Beaten to Death (by anti-catholics)"

Yes, it is a religion forum but...
It's topics are: Apologetics; Catholic; History
key words: constantine; nicea

History is my "thing".
Of course, you may wish to debate the Council of Nicaea and its creed, as they relate to Emperor Constantine -- and that may (or may not) require reference to biblical verses -- but nobody else has raised those questions.

Consider: in Jon Sorensen's article, he pretends to defend Constantine -- who needs no defense, since Constantine was a perfectly good Roman Emperor -- but in fact Sorensen is defending the Catholic Church against claims (some true, some not so) that Constantine not only empowered but simultaneously corrupted it.

Sorensen's defense of the Church here is weak and incomplete, and you might wish to comment on that, comments which may require Biblical references.

But so far, NYer who posted this thread, has resisted most temptations to defend it... ;-)

Last resort, 'may require'? When His Word IS The Authority in everything.

Jesus didn't come to start a religion and now you think His Word will defend it? He spoke to the 'religious' and called them hypocrites as their teachings are of man. So until that sinks in - consider yourself stuck while spinning your wheels. But kindly direct the exhaust in a different direction.

Certain Freepers are known for that kind of thread posting. It is a form of the game, "Let's you and him fight!"
