of course they do.
The Canonical Gospels are thoroughly Roman, whereas the original Gospel was Alexandrine.
Marcion's Gospel (your proto Gospel) was Alexandrine???

Is that what Marcion himself says?

And what do you mean by "thoroughly Roman"?

Have you ever heard of Constantin Brunner?
he's just another deceiver and charlatan of the heritage of Euhemeros.

Absolutely nothing of course!

Quote:
The sight in my opinion is the source of the greatest benefit to us, for had
we never seen the stars, and the sun, and the heaven, none of the
words which we have spoken about the universe would ever have been
uttered. But now the sight of day and night, and the months and the
revolutions of the years, have created number, and have given us a
conception of time, and the power of enquiring about the nature of the
universe; and from this source we have derived philosophy, than
which no greater good ever was or will be given by the gods to
mortal man.

To what?

And BTW, I thought you said that "post Thermopylae" Greeks did not recognize the sun as divine.
