…that the above principle was pretty good for a pagan?
…that Julian dressed and lived like a monk even though he was a Roman Emperor even being celibate following the death of his wife?
…that Durant said of him, “This pagan was a Christian in everything but creed”?
…that in battle Julian lived just like his men, in sleeping and meals, and beautiful young women taken in battle were not molested by him or his men?
…that many “Christian” emperors should have taken him as a role model in conduct but not in creed?
…that his dying statement, used by preachers for centuries, “Thou hast conquered, Galilean” is considered legend by most authorities?
…that Jerome, Ambrose, and Augustine supported the Roman synod of 386 that ordered the unfrocking of any priest who married?
…that Jerome (born 340) called his bishop “ignorant, brutal, wicked” and “the unskillful pilot of a crazy bark” then felt called to a monastery in the desert near Antioch?
…that he was not against marriage but those who avoid it “escape from Sodom” and eternal vigilance is “the price of virginity”?
…that Jerome called the Patriarch of Jerusalem, a “Judas, a Satan, for whom hell can never provide adequate punishment”?
…that the early church leaders had some very strong words for their peers with whom they disagreed?
…that the hope of this world is still Jesus Christ?
