I Wonder

Post by Minimalist »

if the Fundis of the world would accept this as 'proof' that the Roman gods were real?

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news ... atine.html
Archaeologists say they have unearthed Lupercale—the sacred cave where, according to legend, a she-wolf nursed the twin founders of Rome and where the city itself was born.

The long-lost underground chamber was found beneath the remains of Emperor Augustus' palace on the Palatine, a 230-foot-tall (70-meter-tall) hill in the center of the city.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

This is really starting to become a theme around here:
"The archaeological findings are providing more and more evidence that the tale of Rome's foundation isn't a later legend but originates from historical facts," he said.
Legend->discovery->new fact (or really old fact affirmed)

I thought the club was supposed to prevent this kind of news from leaking out!

Good one, Monk.


Looks like they are falling down on the job, eh?
