1. Christoterrorist appeals to "Religious Freedom" (liberty of conscience and tolerance) and cries of "Persecution" - where has the heathen heard that before?

  * "Catholic Clergy exempt from Certain Civic Duties." (Code Theod. xvi, 2, 1; 313.)
  * "The Catholic Church freed from Tribute." (Id. xi, 1, 1; 815.) "Clergymen freed from Financial Burdens." (Id. xvi, 2, 2; 319.) "The Church allowed to Receive Bequests." (Id. xvi, 2, 4; 321.)
  * "Bishop's Powers as Judges and Witnesses": "Whatever may be settled by a sentence of bishops shall ever be held as sacred and venerable ... All testimony given, even by a single bishop, shall be accepted without hesitation, by every judge, neither shall the testimony of any other witness be heard, when the testimony of a bishop is brought forward by either party"!

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Â <b> Laws of Constantius [II] and Constans</b>
    * "Sacrifice Prohibited.": "Let superstition cease and the folly of sacrifices be abolished. Whoever has dared in the face of the law of the divine prince, our father [Constantine] ... to make sacrifices, shall have appropriate penalty, and immediate sentence dealt to him." (Cod. Theod. xvi, 10, 2; 341.)
    * "All Temples Closed and Sacrifices Forbidden." "but if any one commit any offense of this sort, let him fall by the avenging sword," and his property forfeited; judges neglecting to "mete out penalties for these offenses, they shall be similarly punished." (Cod. Theod. xvi, 10, 4; 846.) "Sacrificing and Idolatry Punishable by Death." "We order that all found guilty of attending sacrifices or of worshipping idols shall suffer capital punishment." (Id. xvi, 10, 6; 356.)
  <b>Laws of Gratian and Theodosius</b>
    * "Wills of Apostate Christians to be Set Aside": "The right of making a will shall be taken from Christians who become pagans; and if such persons make wills, they shall be set aside without regard to circumstances." (Cod. Theod. xvi, 7, 1; 381: cf. Cod. Justin. i, 7, 2; 382.)
    * "The Right to Bequeath or Inherit Property Denied Apostates": "We deny to Christians and the faithful who have adopted pagan rites and religion all power of making a will in favor of any person whatsoever, in order that they may be without the Roman law [outlaws]; ... even of enjoying a will with the power of acquiring an inheritance." (Cod. Theod. xvi, 7, 2; 383.)
     "The Right of Making a Will Denied Christians Who enter Temples." ( Id. xvi, 7, 3; 383.)
(Isn't christianism benign to its apostates?)
  <b>Laws of Theodosius and Valentinian</b>
    * "Testamentary Disqualification for Christian Apostates," and Outlawry as Witnesses. -- "Those who betray the sacred faith and profane holy baptism are shut off from association of all and from giving testimony. ... They may not exercise the right of making a will, nor enter upon any inheritance; they may not be made anyone's heir." (Id. xvi, 7, 4; 391.)
    * "Sacrificing and Visiting Shrines Prohibited." (Id. xvi, 10, 10; 391.)
     "Sacrifices Forbidden and Temples Closed." (Id. xvi, 10, 11; 391.)
    * "PAGANISM OUTLAWED." -- "IF any one dares [to sacrifice, etc.], let any man be free to accuse him and let him receive, as one guilty of lese majeste, ... for it is sufficiently a crime." (Id. xvi, 10. 12; 392.)
  <b>Laws of Honorius and Arcadius</b>
    * <b>"Pagan Holidays Abolished."</b> (Cod. Theod. ii, 8, 22; 895.)
(Like how many Hindu holidays have been completely removed from the official national calendar and in place the alien terrorist 'christmas' and 'easter' nonsense, as well as islamic nonsense are made compulsory.)
     <b>"Privileges of Pagan Priests Abolished."</b> (Id. xvi, 10, 14; 396.)
(Like in Chidambaram Kovil where the christoDMK govt has sidelined its traditional temple priests, the Dikshitars.)
     <b>"Rural Temples to be Destroyed." (Id. xvi. 10, 16; 399.)</b>
(Like "Ramarsethu to be destroyed." Chidambaram Kovil. Shabarimalai. Like various temples attacked by christos and christoDMK.)
     <b>"Temples to be Appropriated by the Churches.</b>" (Id. xvi, 5, 43; 408.)
(Like christogovt such as in AP has put christos in charge at several Hindu Temples. Like christo orgs have been assigned the 'catering' contracts for prasadam at major Hindu temples - poison anyone?
Like christogovt controlled anti-Hindu HRCE dept has been assigned to take over Hindu temples.)
     "Temples to be Appropriated by the Churches. Temple Buildings and their Revenues to be Confiscated <b>and idols and Shrines to be Destroyed.</b>" (Id. xvi, 5, 43; xvi, 10, 19; 407.)
(Hey! The Greeks and Romans suffered that as well. Like us Hindus.
The christogovt-appointed anti-Hindu HRCE that is running Hindu Temples divert money to christoism and churches and islam.
And AP govt diverts Hindu temple money meant for Hindu temples and the <i>Hindu</i> practice of Hindu mass marriages to churches and christian mass marriages and christoislamic trips to the Middle East.
Meanwhile lay christians are destroying our Vigrahas, moorthies, statues and our temples, so that bit of the ChristoRoman Law is unofficially covered in Bharatam too.)
    * "Only Catholics to Serve as Palace Guards." (Cod. Theod. xvi. 5, 42; 408.)
(At present there are special privileges and funds for christians in christian colleges that are funded by *Hindu* tax money like st stephen. And much Hindu tax money is being diverted to educating the undeserving terrorist 'minorities' of christoislamaniacs. The christogovt is also seeking to bring in quotas into the Indian armed forces and police and into private enterprise to make it compulsory for these to take on christoislamiterrorists.)
    * "Laws Against the Pagans to be Enforced": "The Donatists and other vain heretics and those others who cannot be converted to the worship of the Catholic communion, Jews and Gentiles who are vulgarly known as pagans; ... Let all judges understand, and not fail to carry out all decrees against such persons." (Id. xvi,. 5, 46; 409.)
    * "Pagans Barred from Civil and Military Offices." (Id. xvi, 10, 21; 416.)
    * "Existing Laws against Pagans to be Enforced." (Id. xvi, 10, 22; 423.)
    * "Pagans Who Sacrifice Shall Lose their Property and be Exiled"' (Id. xvi, 10, 23; 423.)
    * "Pagan Superstition to be Rooted Out": "We are extirpating all heresies and all falsehoods, all schisms and all superstitions of the pagans and all errors that are inimicable to the Catholic religion. ... And since all attempt at supplication is denied forever, they will be punished with the severity befitting crimes." (Id. xvi, 5, 63; 423.)
    <b>* "Pagans Barred from Pleading a Case</b> or Serving as Soldiers": "... and every sect unfriendly with the Catholics should be driven out of every city in order that they may not be sullied by the contagious presence of criminals. We deny to Jews or pagans the right of pleading a case in court or of serving as soldiers." (Const. Sirm. No. 6; 425.)
(Hindus not barred yet, but strategically prevented yes: ChidambaraNatha Kovil case swept under the carpet by 'well-timed' christoDMK lawyer goons in TN supporting christoLTTE.)
  <b>Later laws against paganism</b>
    * "Pagan Rites Forbidden and Bequests for Pagan Cults Prohibited." (Cod. Just. i, 11, 9; 472.)
    * "Baptized Persons who follow Pagan Practices to Suffer Death. Provisions for the Conversion of the Unbaptized. Pagans Forbidden to Give Instruction." (Cod. Just. 1, 11, 10; no date given.)
(Hindus who don't convert are tormented at jobs presided over by christoterrorists. E.g http://conversionagenda.blogspot.com/2009/...elling-its.html
"Trans World Radio-India compelling its employees to convert")
    * "Pagans Barred from Office and their Real Property Confiscated." "The Emperors Justin and Justinian. ... It is our intention to restore the existing laws which affect the rest of the heretics of whatever name they are, (and we label as heretic whoever is not a member of the Catholic Church and of our orthodox and holy faith); likewise the pagans who attempt to introduce the worship of many gods, and the Jews and the Samaritans. ... We forbid any of the above-mentioned persons to aspire to any dignity or to acquire civil or military office or to attain to any rank." (Id. i, 5, 12; 527.)
  Thus was Pagan Superstition proscribed and destroyed by Christian law and sword; and the identical Pagan Superstitions under the veneer of the name of Christian established and enthroned. The subject is thoroughly examined by Prof. Maude A. Huttmann, in The Establishment of Christianity Through the Proscription of Paganism; (Columbia University Press, 1914).

It's not secularism ruling Bharatam. All that is anti-Hindu, all that even vaguely favours christoislamism - e.g. pro-evangelising laws, to 'secular' government's take over of temples - all of it is *christianism*.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Compare the above to Rome's last pagan Emperor, Julian, who reigned after Constantius II from 361 CE:

After the assassination of Julian, his Christian successors eventually repealed all of Julian's edicts and continued to persecute the pagans, as seen above.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I think the bit on the christian Theodosius "wholesale massacre" at Thessalonica refers to:
