I visit this group quite a bit-

98. I know the history of the early Church quite well, better than you evidently

I am so sick of the constant BS about Constantine and his influence on the teachings of the Church it's just the same old tired canard that you and others constantly use and it is really embarrassing that it has been used for so long by so many like some magic spell to derail the real debate on the development of Christian thought. Constantine's' sole interest was in the stability of the empire so that his reign and that of his children would find little opposition and his dynasty continue in control of it. His dynasty ended within thirty years of his death and Christian schism and instability continues so his plan was not even a success in its primary aims.
