I knew you weren't really interested in learning.
what does procopious say?

Throughout the texts he states that Justinian I is the Roman emperor and that his subjects are Roman of course.
because he conquired the pennisula
No, he suceeded his father, Justin I, who was a Roman general that won a civil war. Justin and Justinian were born in Thrace. Heraclius was born in North Africa etc.
he was known as the last roman
Yes, some called him that, but he wasn't of course. What is not getting through your skull is that Roman did not mean the place of birth, but a citizen of the empire.
he was of course as the italic roman empire where it origniated was divided-one into greek and one into latin-over a long time, the greeks went away from the dominat italic rome
orthodox is not papacy and there has been eras where degeneracy rises, usually just before a crisis
In America, we have the Pentecostal protestant faith.
They have strict guidelines as to what women can wear. They forbid makeup, for example.
The Amish and the Mennonites have a strict dress code as well.
You don't have to belong to those faiths, if you don't want to.
You were making it sound like the Catholic Chuch was somehow different.
Wrong. Only Constantinople existed as the capital when Justinian was invested with the purple (see what I posted about Honorius and Arcadius earlier). He later retook the Italian peninsula, but his successors lost it again. The rest of your garbled response makes no sense, but it seems you may be alluding to the transformation I mentioned earlier.
Are you aware of the fact that in 212 AD, Caracalla (born in Lepcis Magna in modern Tunisia) made everyone within the empire a citizen of Rome?
because he was the last Roman
Nonsense. They said the same thing about Mauricius Tiberius, for it was common propaganda among supporters in the texts.
Please try to develop a sound argument based upon knowledge of the subject.
justinian was greek but conquered italic rome for his subjects, thus he became roman, they eventually lost the province thus it became less italic roman
heres the fact: over a long time, the byzatine greeks became less roman
Why do you ignore the content of my posts? Please exercise a little integrity in debate, for I have no patience for those who play games.
That does not change the fact that the so-called Byzantine empire was the Roman Empire. This is so tedious, so I suggest you read Gibbon's Decline and Fall Of The Roman Empire
Just read the first page (app.161 AD) and the last (1453 AD) and that will tell you what I have been trying to explain to you for the last few pages.
your context was factually incorrect
finland is the only legitate claim of the roman empire, is that realistic
It is clear you have no idea of what I'm talking about, as usual. You are tedious, ignorant and illiterate and I'm sick to death of your vapid noise.
Present evidence to counter that which I have provided, or just leave me alone.
i have presented evidence
No, you haven't ~ you've just raved on with what you believe and I don't care about what you believe. Obviously, you have not studied the subject, so I can dismiss your unqualified opinion for what it is ~ an unqualified opinion of no merit.
I presented sound evidence that you completely ignored in order to push your belief system and I don't waste time on that type of 'debate' any longer.
Now, are you finished with yanking my chain?
"yanking your chain" YOUR the one who started this by objective false history in a dicussion about sex and culture
LOLOL Whatever, I don't care what you think at all. You clearly don't know what you're talking about and I'm done with your silliness.
i am right!
