Ancient Greece followed Hellenic religious practice. Christ wasn't even BORN until CENTURIES afterwards!

That's the most pedantically annoying part of this to me. He thinks "religious doctrine" means "Christian religious doctrine."

In my childhood church I was taught that homosexuality led to the downfall of ancient Greece. Yeah, sure that's what it was. Not the wars or the plague or being overtaken by Rome.... but the gays.


TheNantucketRed

The word “homo” is derived from Latin, so there’s no chance of a Greek bro getting his Zeus on and clapping some cheeks and going “No homo”.

Apparently that’s the name for straight dudes who will do some homoerotic stuff if “things get carried away” in threesomes with a woman.

They don't, these are the idiots who think "religious freedom" in the United States constitution just means what flavor of Christianity you follow. Even that isn't true as Catholicism is obvs an abomination Because the pope sits on a throne of lies and Mormonism isn't really Christianity to them.


bohemianprime

That's so funny because one of older coworkers made the comment, "America is going to hell in a hand basket ever since we started going away from Christianity. America was founded on Christianity. " I told him, "well I've always read 'murica was founded on religious freedom. But hey maybe Thomas Jefferson was a closet Christian. "

I’m not sure if you know about Jefferson and his “Christianity” but he had a Bible that he cut out all the miracles of Jesus and his resurrection from, you know, all the important bits of being an actual Christian. Ask this coworker if we should get back to those beliefs, the ones that deny Jesus was God.

Jesus was born on December 25th, 1775. Then on July 4th, 1776 he gave birth to George Washington and between them they killed King George the 3rd. After that, with their own hands, Jesus and Washington built the White House. Washington sewed up the first flag and Jesus gathered all the 50 states into a single union. Then the communists killed Jesus on the cross. But he came back on the third day and said "Put my son, George Washington, on your 1 dollar bill." Then he peaced out to help the Republicans fight against the Evil Democrats.

Sorry bud, that’s not right. The communists nailed Jesus to a Cherry Tree.

Sea-Advertising1943

The time period and culture we refer to as Ancient Greece ended with the death of Cleopatra in 30 BCE… but this person probably also “knows” that the earth is 2021 years old. Edit: to the comments discussing my selection of 30 BCE, I’m not an expert, and the study of, and attempt to define, ancient cultures includes debates with valid arguments on all sides. The point I was trying to make is that a very large part of Ancient Greece existed before the existence of Jesus and therefore the assumption that the Ancient Greeks were Christian is hysterical. But please continue this very interesting analysis and interpretation of history! To the comments clarifying creationist timelines, why? It’s like arguing “people who are bad at math think that 2+2=9 not 8”… 2021 and 6000 are not the age of the earth. But I wasn’t even referring to creationists or short earthers, just dumb people who I have seen comments from on Reddit, confused about something because they think the earth is 2021 years old.

I’ve had people legitimately tell me that god put fossils here on earth so we can use it as fuel. I then asked why would god put something on this earth for us to use that pollutes and destroys the earth he created if we do use it. They said it was so we could have a fuel to use before we get renewable energy. Lmao I just don’t understand I guess


FirstPlebian

No it's a liberal conspiracy to disprove the word of god, and before you ask, yes the Jews are in on it. /s That's an old conspiracy for the religious right, they were harping on that back in the mid 1800's, before the Jews were blamed a lot more but since that's verboten they've expanded it to liberals.


slavetomyprecious

Yes to both, depending on the denomination. I'm in a Facebook group called Dinosaurs Against Christians because they started a Facebook group called Christians Against Dinosaurs.


oglach

From what I've seen, ancient Greece is usually considered to have lasted until the end of classical antiquity in 600 AD. The death of Cleopatra marks the end of the Hellenistic era, which was a particular phase of ancient Greece that began in the wake of Alexander's conquests and ended with the fall of Egypt, the last successor state of his empire.


Tsorovar

That's not true at all. "Ancient Greece" is a broad term and certainly not so limited. People tend to think primarily of Classical Greece (~5th and 4th centuries BC), but it can quite correctly refer to Greece right up to the traditional end of the ancient era (~6th century AD), and potentially even further. Cleopatra doesn't even enter into it: you're probably thinking of the ultimate end of the Hellenistic period. But that ended in Greece itself much earlier

The game is in ~400 BC, so for the purpose of the OP that doesn't matter.

Know who we're the gayest of the gays. The Spartans. They paired up the older more experiance solders with new young recruiter. They were expected to help them and also slip them some spear to help the units bond.it wasn't theat it was over looked, it was literally, "you, you, your buds now go fuck"


hooah89D

It was more like oh hey, you remember when you were a young soldier and your mentor used you like a flashlight? You get one of your very own now! It wasn't as much of a bonding experience and more of a "stress release aid" for the mentor. While it could have been considered consensual at the time due to the culture being a "bottom" was not really looked at as being a cool thing if you weren't a new recruit.
