Rome fell because of...

1. Christianity
2. Homosexuality and Sexual Perversion in general
3. Lead in the pipes
4. Immigration of non-Romans diluting the Roman culture and ethos
5. Depletion of gold reserves used to bribe Mongols
6. Low birth rate among Roman elites
7. Over-expansion of empire
8. Military increasingly relying on non-Roman mercenaries
9. Advancing technologies and military tactics of opposing civilizations

Place your money, take your bets.

Edward Gibbon in his work, “The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire”, postulated that Christianity was a major cause of the fall of Rome. He is mostly wrong, and only correct to the extent that Christians would not send their sons to fight for Sodomite legions. Homosexuality is the root cause.

Christian disciplined armies are unstoppable

Romans became lovers of pleasure. In short, they became soft.
