Can't wait to see neo-pagans react to Tiberian decrees punishing divination and druidism

  1. "Paganism" was a junk-drawer, so the persecution of WHAT pagans? Because celtic and germanic pagans were persecuted by greco-roman pagans for practicing human sacrifices.
  2. I'm atheist, but I can see that Christianity was far better than animal cruelty and the scam called astrology.
  3. Agora by Alejandro Amenabar is an alt-history film, bro.
  4. If you actually studied the philosophy school of Greco-Roman religion, you see the evolution from polytheism to monotheism, or at least henotheism. By the end of the IV century greco-romans had their own Holy Trinity (was exactly as the Christian one, but changed the names). Even Julian II "the last pagan" was monotheist, believing that Jupiter was THE GOD and the other gods were just avatars or angels of him.
  5. Persecution of pagans? Where are the corpses? Where are the martyrs? If religious persecution is baning human/animal cruelty and scams, your religion is pretty bad, to be honest.
