It's kind of unbelievable when you think about it.
An organization that still exists and is still successful today, and that has been in continuing existence since the days of the Roman Empire... --- I don't hate people, people hate me. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I was raised Catholic, and ever since I got into learning about Rome, I noticed something interesting during Mass. That the altar looks like the ancient altars that Roman priests would use to worship the gods. its the same altar just used for a different god. and the robes of the priest I think are similar kindof to old Roman clothing. so that's cool. I'm not catholic anymore but my family is, and they drag me to it sometimes. And that's one bit of interest I can pull out of an otherwise boring hour. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Are we talking strictly about the Western empire , which formally died c. AD 476, or the Eastern Empire, which technically hung on til 1453? No, I mean the western empire. If we talk about the eastern empire technically you could say it continued even later than that with the Ottoman state. --- I don't hate people, people hate me. ... Copied to Clipboard!
