I mean

2019-03-09 05:20:14 UTC  

Alaric was a Christian

2019-03-09 05:20:23 UTC  

The Visigothic and Ostrogothic kingdoms were Christian

2019-03-09 05:20:29 UTC  

Bro pls stop oh my goodness

2019-03-09 05:21:03 UTC  

Plus you fundamentally misunderstand the Germanic migrations

2019-03-09 05:21:09 UTC  

These were not large populations of people

2019-03-09 05:21:21 UTC  

And they had already been moving into these territories for a century prior

2019-03-09 05:21:42 UTC  

Remove the enter key from your keyboard or throw your phone against the wall this hurts to watch

2019-03-09 05:21:49 UTC  

lmao

2019-03-09 05:21:52 UTC  

many converted after getting on to the italian peninsula, thats not to say that the franks and germans at that stage were all christian

2019-03-09 05:22:14 UTC  

You're right. Clovis converted to Cheistianity, the first king of the Franks.

2019-03-09 05:22:18 UTC  

What's your point

2019-03-09 05:23:07 UTC  

Are you saying the Dark Ages was like a decade bro

2019-03-09 05:23:19 UTC  

And that's the only time we can isolate it to since pagans supposedly resurged???

2019-03-09 05:23:22 UTC  

Source pls

2019-03-09 05:23:39 UTC  

all of this shit sounds like it happened before the "dark ages" began

2019-03-09 05:23:41 UTC  

aka the middle ages

2019-03-09 05:23:50 UTC  

which is what we are taught by schools were the dark ages

2019-03-09 05:24:07 UTC  

Whenever Germans became mercenaries in the Roman army if they weren't Christians before they usually became Christians after

2019-03-09 05:24:19 UTC  

And many successful raiders were former Roman mercenaries

2019-03-09 05:24:38 UTC  

Arianism was very popular in Germany prior to all of this

2019-03-09 05:24:57 UTC  

Paganism inly survived in the northern parts which is why the Franks would launch crusades into Saxony

2019-03-09 05:25:26 UTC  

But there was no diaspora of pagans that caused a decline of Christianity in the Roman Empire my guy

2019-03-09 05:25:42 UTC  

You should be given the retard role ngl

2019-03-09 05:27:31 UTC  

But yeah the Germans "at this stage" had been Christian for two centuries

2019-03-09 05:27:40 UTC  

They didn't all miraculously convert when they settled in Italy

2019-03-09 05:27:44 UTC  

What a meme

2019-03-09 05:27:46 UTC  

Pagan shit was restricted to the scandinavians and baltics during the "dark ages" if im correct

2019-03-09 05:28:11 UTC  

Was dead in Scandinavia by the 11th century basically

2019-03-09 05:28:18 UTC  

And similarly in the Baltics a century later

2019-03-09 05:28:26 UTC

2019-03-09 05:29:43 UTC  

For my part I don't think Arianism is Christian because it denies the essential nature of Christ.

2019-03-09 05:29:49 UTC  

It is basically deism with extra steps.

2019-03-09 05:33:45 UTC  

@CronoSaturn I want to have a rational educated debate with you sensei please don't ignore me I'll be cordial

@εïз irma εïз i wasnt snubbing you i was just having a convo with a mate and ive looked into things a little more
you raise good points and certainly its less black and white then I first imagined it to be but the decline of the roman empire saw a shrinking of christian influence before christian institutions would then gain a foothold with the institutions post roman empire

2019-03-09 08:18:38 UTC  

france saw that transition relatively early but were earlier overrun by pagans

2019-03-09 08:20:45 UTC  

other parts of europe saw differing rates there with irish christianity developing independantly of the catholic church to a significant degree before being brought back into the fold later and england dropping out before converting in a manner similar to france
