I have been somewhat inspired by the holocaust denial posters and the irefutable facts and logic, so I'm going to use my critical eye on a subject I'm completly detached and rational about.....

....Because this is total bullshit and I shall present my brilliant case no Christian was persecuted in Pagan rome which will completly exonerate the Hellenes
1) The Christian church has produced lots of art and cultural depictions of the Matyrs and has almost certainly in some context profited from it both in terms of material gains and rhetorically, this of coarse proves Christians are lying about the events that occured.
2) Many accounts of Christian matyrdom involve magic,mysticism and other such dramatic bullshit. Since I know these events didnt occur,this means that the Persecution overall was also false.
3) I find it hard to believe some of the logistical aspects of the persecutions-afterall lions don't just randomly eat people. I have read on a website by some guy that Damnatio ad bestias is undoable and I have definatly looked into it myself. Also Crucifixtion couldnt happen as you'd just fall off, you need to explain to me why you wouldnt.
4) Their are accounts in history of Romans Emperors not murdering Christians by the truckload for example, Trajan. Why would some Emperors not violently murder dissidents when others did?
5)Where are the bodies?
6)Their is very little documentation about persecution with little to no documents directly ordering it, For example Their are no writtings of Marcus Auralius on the subject outside of him mentioning he hates christians in a letter, since their is no written evidence that he specifically ordered it, it didnt happen.
7)Christianity has used these events to justify later acts of violence and aggressive cultural colonialism, I believe the persecutions where a conspiracy so Christians could conquer lithuania and other pagan countries.
8 )If the Persecitions happened why were there still Christians who survived?
9)Nero did not in fact fiddle as rome burned-he rode back to city to direct fire fighting, this means nero is a nice guy.
10)The logistics of the whole thing just don't make sense, how exactly do you order people to kill other people when you have public support, control of the state and a big army?
11) Other religious persecutions have occured in history, why didnt medieval Catholics talk as much as Zorostrian persecutions under Islam as much as the roman matyrs?
12)All the territories of the old roman Empire are controlled by Christians and specifically around the mediterranean and middle east, why is it all occured in those specific territories? Isnt that suspicious.
13)why was it saying Christianity sucked during the medieval period was illigal? if the persecutions happened then it would be okay to say Christianity sucked in that period.
14) lots of stories where made up about it for example, peters upturned cross was made up around the 2nd century, since that event didnt occur, peter wasnt killed.
Now you may call be a disingenious fuckhead I'm only questioning the 'facts', I'm just saying that if you pick at the details then it doesnt make any sense. It is on you to explain these things to me.
Next I'll prove the Massacre of the Latins didnt happen by not looking into it because I'm quite fond of the Byzantine empire.
