I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


I was told that certain Roman emperors were also credited with miracles. In looking that up, I found this:
Quote:

Where in the recorded history of the period do we find healing miracles like those in the Gospels? The Roman historians Tacitus and Suetonius write about Flavius Vespasian healing blind and lame men. These ‘miracles’ and many other portents were needed to justify Vespasian’s ‘divinely approved’ ascent to power. The dynasty he was succeeding was of noble Roman blood, while the Flavians were of common stock.


I thought the whole site was interesting:

Reality sucks. Especially when it contradicts our cherished ideas.

As Round 2 is also getting a bit long, I took the liberty of following Soup's previous move, and continuing the thread here: http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=18&t=25739

Thank you.
