Did you hear about the happy Roman?

Gladiator.

Nudge nudge. Wink wink.

Hear about the happy Roman?
Glad he ate her.


I know. I'm so immature

As cloudballoon says, the inventor was from 6th century BCE, so thanks Romans!

Just a modern way to build Roman Arches.

More top maga officials indicted in Wisconsin for the fraudulent elector scheme to defraud the election. Chesebro, Roman, and Troupis.
Also indicted in Georgia and AZ for the Trump election fraud scheme. More to come. Failed seditious maga insurrection is the gift that keeps on giving.

Epoch Times, the maga propaganda outlet, is busted as a Chinese money laundering scheme that spent tens of millions to get maggots elected using pilfered money stolen using international identity theft from China.
Not the first time either, remember Bannon’s partner, Miles Guo, another Chinese fraud working for and donating to maga arrested for a $1 billion fraud scheme? It is a pattern, maga is funded by foreign money coming from criminal people who win if America loses.
Question- How many times has the DNC been indicted for being funded with stolen money donated to them by Chinese criminals they’re in business with?

Bonus - In a case of delicious irony, Jesus took the wheel of the Trump “Trust Jesus” bus and it rolled away on its own and crashed on its way to Staten Island.

Second Bonus - the distributor of “2000 mules” has apologized and removed the film from their platforms because it was chock full of lies and falsified data and evidence, lies and fake evidence that the producers knew were lies and fake when they made the movie. SHOCKER! Who could have guessed? (Look back, you’ll see who.). You still believe every word despite the multiple fraud admissions by its creators.

Third bonus- Biden’s meeting with OPEC resulted in them agreeing to drop production and bring oil prices down to below $74 a barrel. America is producing more oil than ever, and is now the major supplier of oil to the world. Gas prices are about to drop like a stone. Enjoy Bidenomics!

Fourth bonus - Biden just changed immigration policy so now anyone illegally entering the country is banned from even applying for asylum and immediate deportation. A much stronger immigration policy than Republicans even tried to implement.

I’m glad you knew what I was talking about, but also disappointed that explanation was necessary.
It’s a truly sad state that so many people are so ignorant of history that they claim America is a Christian nation founded on Christian law, when in fact it was founded in part to escape government forcing any single religion (or religion in general) on citizens, and was founded on English common law which is Pagan, as it existed long before anyone in England had heard of Christ or Romans.

Hey! No proselytizing in the classroom! 😉

Besides, the passage he read indicates that Christ’s birth would not be mid winter or the shepherds would likely not have been in the fields at night, it’s pretty cold and wet in Bethlehem (a 1/2 mile high city) in late December.
Any professor should know December 25th was Mithra’s birthday, a popular religious holiday, and emperor Constantine usurped it for Christianity as a way to consolidate religions to make it easier to use against the masses as a political tool.
You’re celebrating a dishonest political plot and an Iranian/Roman Pagan God’s birth, not the birth of Jesus.

Yes, that is what I meant, as soon as he was approaching with an openly carried gun, wild west rules as I understand them say the moment he attempts to aim at anyone he is open game for anyone who can draw faster.

If you desperately want to live in the wild west that is.

I am totally lost on whether I should be using the sarcasm button on these posts. I am being sarcastic. I believe some form of gun limiting federal law is the only way out of this mess. But then the sarcasm does not make my claim invalid.

I knew an american who came to Prague (turns out he is still here and is still a film producer) who would carry his gun around all the time and randomly pull it out and show it to people at business meetings and in pubs. I thought at the time (early 90s) dude this is SO embarassing. Regular manners in a civilized society since roman times dictate that people do not carry weapons unless danger is imminent. You only carry weapons if you are directly employed to be in dangerous situations, otherwise you are putting yourself and others in danger and appear to be a reckless fool.

So if the USofA consider themselves the wild west to this day, then it is understandable that Kyle was let go, and I say disarm him or shoot him before he shoots you.

Hit him with that skateboard, only harder!

Ok, but other than referencing or citing, and to suggest other books on the subject, what have the Romans ever done for us?

Yes, and marriage meant "man selling his daughter to another bloke" and decimate meant "to kill 10% of a roman century (which meant unit of 100 soldiers as opposed to unit of time)".

Definitions change, language evolves .... move on.

That depends on which bible you mean....there are many.

Really? Lost to history?! Hardly....lost to the ignorant and uneducated maybe, but even atheists like me know full well Jesus the man was a Jew, and definitely not a European or "white". Roman/Italian artists knew this, but worked for a Roman church so portrayed him in their image.

Genetic purity?! Lol. I guess that means no one has EVER become Jewish, you're either born one by two pure Jewish parents or not. Hardly reality, and would reject nearly every person in Israel (or elsewhere). Just because there is a long standing religious/cultural taboo against marriage outside the culture, it still happens, as does conversion. Racial/genetic purity is a fallacy debunked by genetic testing.

Prophecy is a leap. No prophecy has been correctly interpreted until AFTER the events supposedly prophesied occurred. It's ridiculous to go back after the fact and claim "see, now that I know exactly how to interpret the unclear prophecy I couldn't decipher before, it's a 100% perfect prediction" but never be able to predict the future. That's the same nonsensical logic mediums use.

The second temple was also the third, since the true second temple was originally a rather modest structure constructed by a number of Jewish exile groups returning to the Levant from Babylon under the Achaemenid-appointed governor Zerubbabel. However, during the reign of Herod the Great, the Second Temple was completely refurbished, and the original structure was totally overhauled into the large and magnificent edifices and facades that are more recognizable. Logically, the third temple was the one destroyed by Romans, the second replaced by Herod but the new one was still called the second temple anyway. (To avoid contradicting prophecy? ;-) )

If the dome of the rock, the second most holy place in Islam, is destroyed, expect Jerusalem to follow soon after, as that will definitely start a religious war between nuclear powers.

Herodotus is credited with using the term Palestinian first, in the 5th century BCE as an ethnonym, making no distinction between Arabs, Jews, or other cultures inhabiting of the area. Romans adopted the term as the official administrative name for the region in the 2nd century CE, "Palestine" as a stand-alone term then came into widespread use, printed on coins, in inscriptions and even in rabbinic texts.

I think you are confused about the history, here's a primer...
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_and_Judaism_in_the_Land_of_Israel

The area was populated by various people's including Jews until the Jewish–Roman wars of 66–136 CE, during which the Romans expelled most of the Jews from the area (well, really they arguably left voluntarily because they refused to be second class citizens barred from practicing their religion freely) and replaced it with the Roman province of Syria Palaestina, the Arabs were already there, not invaders or immigrants. When Assyrians (Mesopotamians) invaded in circa 722 BCE, they ruled empirically, meaning only the Jewish ruling elite left, returning in 538 BCE under Cyrus the Great....so no, the Arabs didn't just settle after the Jews were dispersed.

It's patently ridiculous to say the Arab nations were unprovoked, Jewish illegal immigration led to a hostile takeover of the region by illegal immigrants with rapid expansion of their territories into their neighbors continuing through today. The Jews defeated the Arabs thanks to American backing and exponentially better hardware. It was only their right if might makes right, and the Arab nations are under no obligation to let them keep what they stole any more than the Jews were obligated to let the Arab nations retain control in the first place. If Iran, Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, or any combination can take it, by your logic they have every right to do so.

I do agree, in the end there will be more conflict until the area becomes uninhabitable....largely because every religion's prophecies end with them in control, and no one wants to admit it's all nonsensical iron age tribalism at work.
