"Prominent atheists insist that the Roman emperor Constantine never really converted to Christianity, pretended to adopt the faith as a political ploy and created the Bible at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD. And all these claims are total garbage." https://youtu.be/3HBv_X6k35g #Video #History #Histodon #Histodons #Christianity #Religion #Bible #RomanEmpire #Constantine @histodon @histodons @religion
It's a real historical debate whether Constantine engaged in realpolitik with his conversion.
The canonization of the Bible is a long complex process and conspiracies pushed into public consciousness by Dan Brown are not helpful. Undoubtedly some atheists repeat it.
I would be wary about learning history from anyone, atheists or not, with a rather strident agenda, and I would include Tim O'Neill in that list. Don't learn it from me either - I am just an interested amateur.
@faassen Thank you for your comment.
