(MENAFN) On an island in Bahrain, archaeologists and historians are at work discovering relics that will show the story of Christian homes in the kingdom before the spread of Islam. A group of Bahraini and British specialists prudently examine through sandy stretches between thick stone walls of what may have been a monastery or a bishop’s home referring back to the sixth and eighth century. Archaeologists in November are searching through spaces that would have been used as a kitchen, living areas and a workshop to stress on communities and their way of life before thousands of years. The team...

In one image, a ginger-haired little girl sported a T-shirt from the brand while holding the strap connected to a white bear, which was in a vest with a...

On this date 470 years ago, John Lambert was burned to death at London’s Smithfield market for heresy. One possible way to read the early progress of the English Reformation is as an initial flowering of Protestantism followed — after the execution of Anne Boleyn — by a reactionary crackdown by the monarch. In this telling, John Lambert (born John Nicolson or Nicholson) marks the turning point, the man in whose blood Henry VIII etched his warning against doctrinal liberality. John Lambert cooked his goose by picking a theological dispute with a pastor in London. He didn’t buy into transubstantiation,...
