Again David, Look at the challenge ... I am asking for any historical account from Bet Nahrain going east to the Pacific ocean, not the other way around. You gave us an example west of Bet Nahrain! -Dean Tiglath wrote: >In 313AD, while battling to become the new emperor of Rome , Constantine claimed that he saw a burning cross in the sky, with the words, "in this sign, conquer." After emerging victorious from the battle he finally gave Christians freedom of worship throughout the Roman Empire . > >It was not until 380 AD that Emperor Theodosius introduced legislation that affirmed the dogmas of the Council of Nicaea and made church membership compulsory. By 393AD, he had made Christianity the official and only state religion of the Roman Empire . He then undertook the forcible suppression of all other religions, and the prohibition of all forms of paganism. [1] Any who would dare to hold to any other form of worship were considered heretics and would suffer severe punishment from the state. >[1] Encyclopedia Britannica, Vol 18, p.926. --------------------- |
