[QUOTE="Dr Simon, post: 6116154, member: 21938"] Yes, I think that way of things sounds good to me, it would gibe well Kaodi's "witch-woman" character idea as well. At the time of the campaign, there are different flavours of church any way. The Irish missionaries who brought Christianity to Wales are more bookish and not really into conversion at the point of the sword. But on the far side of the British Isles, Augustine is bringing the orthodox vision to the Anglo-Saxons, which is actually at doctrinal odds with the Celtic version of the church (although mostly over points such as the calculation of Easter, etc.). Most ire is reserved not for non-Christians, but for variant forms deemed heretical by the Council of Nicea, notably the Arian faith of most of the Gothic tribes, which holds that there is nothing remotely divine about Jesus. Well, them and the fire-worshipping Persians. And the Jews. And then there's this new monotheism taking hold amongst the Arabs.... [/QUOTE]
