I know he wasn't perfect (none of us are) but...
  12. Did Constantine save Christianity?

    I just caught a bit of an episode from the six-hour series "Ancient Roads from Christ to Constantine". Going into it, I thought that the series would offer an interesting rehash of what historians know of the events leading from the early Nazarene assembly to the conditions surrounding the rise...
