Yep. I don't know if Androcles was a Christian. History has it that Christians were pitted against beasts in the Coliseum for entertainment. My experience has led me to believe that history.
To: AndrewC
It was actually the Circus Maximus (next door to the Coliseum.) The Coliseum itself was sacred and didn't allow for executions. (It did allow for combat.) Hollywood (and movies like "The Robe" and "Quo Vadis") likes to use the Coliseum because it looks neat.
Of course, the legend of Androcles is from Aesop and thus predates Christianity by some time. G.B. Shaw had a version, too. (He also re-wrote Pygmalion.)

It was actually the Circus Maximus (next door to the Coliseum.)I don't know, wasn't there, but the Catholic encyclopedia, says it is likely some Christians were martyred there. Who knows exactly where, but no doubt they were martyred.

So, I'm still looking for the first notion that stars arise and die by becoming "lightening." So much "light(ning)" so little time to comprehend just what the heck old Enoch was suggesting! Oh well, narrow is the path and few there are that find it (on their own)
To: LeeMcCoy
Never met one. Most Christians I know would be ashamed of being ashamed of the Lord.

Indeed, reading ancient text only at face value is a time consuming challenge. Thanks for your post!

To: RadioAstronomer
Good morning! Here's wishing you a great day at the controls! BTW, I have been collecting all the astronomy research on Enoch for a separate thread since it'll probably go on for some time. I'll give you a heads up so you can post your "digs" at your convenience. Thanks!
To: RadioAstronomer
Posting to FR is alien communication. :-) hehehehe For you it might seem that way. Aha! You have been goaded into revealing your extraterrestrial origins. As I always suspected. Back where you came from, alien wretch!

You have been goaded into revealing your extraterrestrial origins. Hmmm....Could that be true? (remember I was adopted and have NO family history, not even a birth date).
And everyone I work with says I am a bit goofy!
