Arguments of the Emperor Julian Against the Christians is a book written by Thomas Taylor that presents the arguments made by the Roman Emperor Julian against Christianity. Julian was a pagan who sought to revive the traditional religions of Rome and saw Christianity as a threat to his vision of a restored pagan empire. In this book, Taylor provides a detailed analysis of Julian's arguments, which are based on his belief in the superiority of pagan philosophy and his rejection of Christian beliefs such as the divinity of Christ and the concept of original sin. The book also includes a historical context of the Roman Empire during Julian's reign and the religious and philosophical debates of the time. Arguments of the Emperor Julian Against the Christians is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of Christianity and the ancient world.Translated from the Greek Fragments preserved by Cyril, Bishop of Alexandria, to which are added Extracts from the Other Works of Julian Relative to the Christians by Thomas Taylor. �������The knowledge of the Gods is Virtue, Wisdom, and Perfect Felicity, and Makes Us Resemble the Gods.������� �������I rejoice in the opportunity which is now afforded me of printing this translation of the extracts from a lost work of Julian against the Christians; conceiving that it may be the means of benefitting a certain few, who though they have been educated in stupid opinions, have abandoned them, and who, if properly instructed in, would immediately embrace the genuine religion of mankind.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
