        I'm thinking it may have something to do with God, and his being the supreme deity? It's only a guess...🤟😉

        Truly amazing that the fantasies of Iron age people have such a profound effect on society today. Amazing isn't really the right word. Pathetic is better.

        actually it only changed around 30% of the world as that is how many are Christians, they also believe in #EasterBunny and #Fatherchristams it is insulting to the other 70% that are not #Christinans

        Did #Constantine the Great have a vision or an idea to make the masses obedient with out the need for a massive army? The fact that he died and was buried a #Pagan says it all.

        Where do I begin? This single action of #Constantine made the earth flat, it stopped it from rotating around the sun, free though was prosecuted and philisophers, mathematicans and scientists executed

        So basically, they went backwards because of the religion they made?

        It was co-opted by a government that then stripped out much of it's teaching and funded it's expanse at the edge of a sword.
