Martyrs

[***super_nova***]

Tonight program on the SBS -  "Martyrs - Rome’s attempt to stamp out Christianity ends up inspiring it as the cult of martyrdom, with death considered a ‘baptism of blood’, becomes a heroic victory over their oppressors."

Isn't it ironic that the Romans tried to stamp out Chistianity and Rome became the hub of the Catholic Church?

But I love epic movies, so may watch it tonight or record it.

Will be interesting to see what story has been written by an imaginative mind.

I remember watching Cecil B deMille's Sign of the Cross as a kid

The synopsis was the same and that was made in 1932 

(and no, I'm not that old,  lol)

Story of Perpetua was very interesting. A potential queen in my opinion.
