There are heroes of the faith that we don't know, never heard of. Yet we owe them so much! Today we look at one of them, the Black Dwarf!
We talk about the lack of news, the tournament we played in, and a model you probably should be playing: Black Dwarf.

Can there be habitable worlds around black holes? Where did Mars get its perchlorates from? How are iron meteorites formed? How will the Sun die? Will China succeed with their Moon landing? All this and more in this week's Q&A with Fraser Cain.

Oooooh weeeee, Wilders. Do we have a bunch to go over this week on Wait! Did I Roll a Wild?. Tim and Dan are here and we're going over the Bombshell that is Supergiant, we're touching on the new First of the Black Order tactics card that has Corvus leading the band, as well as some new tech for Black Dwarf and a way to set up some plans that some might consider 'Well Laid'. We'll also be taking a look at the Ministravaganza schedule and what we're excited to see from there as well! What If?

In this DOUBLE issue we look at the modular sets Armies of Titan and Black Order from the MTS box.

February 8. Athanasius. Athanasius, whose nickname was “Black Dwarf,” was a theologian, a church leader, and an Egyptian political leader. If he had lived in the twenty-first century, instead of the fourth, we would call him an influencer—maybe Chief Influencer. For forty-five years he was Bishop of Alexandria, and his congregation included all of Egypt and Libya. During that time, he was exiled—thrown out of […] The post Athanasius, Egypt, Bishop of Alexandria first appeared on 365 Christian Men.
It's an emotional start to this week's podcast with the final recording of podcast mainstays Tomaga. It is - as with all the music Tom and Valentina made together - absolutely stunning and it's heartbreaking no more is forthcoming. More positively, we have a great batch of other sounds to accompany it, not least the ferocious Bugandan drumming of the Nilotika Drum Ensemble or the more experimental percussion of Poland's Arszyn. There's gnarly noise from USA/Mexico, library influenced delights from Tom Furse, "Black Dwarf" techno from Selm, and loads more.

In this Episode, Will and Nate take a look back at 2 of the lesser used characters in MCP. The guys talk about how Black Dwarf is maybe a bit undervalued and how to get the most out of this beefy alien. There are a lot of things that have seemingly improved the utility of a this character and we go into all of them. Then the guys discuss arguably the least used character in the game, Ebony Maw. They give some strategies that can be used to improve his play but also discuss why you might want to continue to avoid him. All this and more inside!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xw-sDmt7PY4 Hosted by Tony Darnell. We know that white dwarf stars are the stellar remnants of the death of a star roughly the size of our Sun. These stars are embers that slowly cool over eons into black dwarfs. The time required for this to happen is so long that most of the universe will be gone by then. But then, according to Dr. Matt Caplan, these black dwarfs can explode into fiery supernovae long after the universe has gone dark. How is this possible? Please join Tony Darnell as he discusses the end of all things with Dr. Matt Caplan.

https://youtu.be/cIcPtF1bN-U I've got some bad news for you. Stars die. At some point in the next few billion years or so our Sun is going to start heating up, using up all the fuel in its core, and then eventually die, becoming a white dwarf. It'll then slowly cool down to the background temperature of the Universe, becoming a black dwarf. Let's learn about this fascinating process.

In this episode, we talk with historian and socialist-feminist Sheila Rowbotham about her own political and intellectual development. Rowbotham was a close friend of Edward and Dorothy Thompson, a participant in the radical movements of the 1960s and 1970s, and a prominent political writer and historian. We also discuss Chapters 12 and 13: the different meanings of discipline in working-class life, the Irish presence, and class-struggle elections in ninteenth-century Westminster.

Jim and Fred take a look at the new Second Coming comic from Ahoy Comics. It's the Mark Russell take on what happens when God sends his only begotten Son back to Earth. But there's a catch. Jesus is paired up with a superhero named Sunstar who God convinces to let Jesus move in with and take under his wing. Irreverent? Depends on you. We also introduce a new regrettable superhero, The Black Dwarf. For more info on Second Coming and Ahoy Comics go to https://comicsahoy.com/

Sean answers your Marvel questions!0:26 William Ford-ConwayHey Sean! Hope all is well. Let the countdown to Endgame begin! Allow me to put on the tin foil cap of speculation BUT with the recent release of the "Survivors and Fallen" posters, I noticed that its "official" that all the Iron Man centric characters survived the snap and may have some role in Endgame. Im not one to try to guess who is going to die, but I couldn't help feel that maybe this is a hint that Tony won't make it out OR at the very least will be his last hurrah in some sense. I can just see the movie taking the time to include the Iron Man history the most if Marvel plans on scaling back the Iron Man lore going forward. Thoughts?5:04 Phillip CastroHey Sean! Mind sharing your tips and tricks for making it comfortably though a 3+ hour movie in theaters?! Thank you! Hahaha8:02 Woo S! KimI heard from several people that Flo's Diner at Disneyland/California Adventure is a great restaurant, what is your favourite restaurant at Disneyland and would you be all for an MCU themed restaurant?8:51 Woo S! KimWhat are some of your favourite songs that were non scored music used for the Guardians of The Galaxy in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, for me it has to be “Rubberband Man,” “Ain't No Mountain High Enough,” “Go All The Way” “Mr. Blue Sky” and “Southern Nights.” What about you, Sean?10:24 William Ford-ConwayDidn't get a chance to mention this on a previous Q&A but words can't describe how happy I am that James Gunn is back for Vol 3 and since that news I have been thinking about the possibilities a lot recently. I know it was a very long time ago, but do you remember a piece of news that some info from the Vol 1 prison lineup might be retconned for Vol 3? Just for fun I've been taking that as a hint for where Vol 3 is going and one possibility I found is that in Rocket's profile it says his associate is Lylla. For those who don't know, Lylla is an Otter from Rocket's homeworld in the comics. Because I have a sneaking suspicion that Rocket will have an even bigger role in Vol 3 (as Gunn as related to him the most it seems) Im wondering if this will be retconned so that Rocket meets her and thus finally meeting someone like him for the first time (completing his story of not feeling alone). Again, some wild speculation but I could totally see it happening. Also for the voice of Lylla, give me Tiffany Haddish!13:21 Paul ShearmanHey Sean and everyone - happy One Month Until Avengers Endgame to you all!! Following on from Alex's question on the weekend Q&A about Kevin Feige directing a Marvel movie, it got me thinking (again!) about how lucky we are to have had Kevin at the helm throughout this 11 year wonder that is the MCU. From listening to interviews with Kevin, we know that he is a huge comics fan, but he always talks about movies being his biggest passion, and that all he wanted to do when he was a kid was to make movies. We know that Kevin has the Midas touch for finding the best storytellers to tell these tales in the MCU, and he has utilised the source material of the comics fantastically well to bring these stories to life, but would you say that it's his expertise in movie-making, above his love and knowledge of the history within Marvel comics, that is creating the golden formula here? And is this why Marvel movies are so much more successful that DC movies (in my opinion, and I would just reaffirm that I love both Marvel and D.C. and always have done). Hope this question makes sense, enjoy the rest of your week (oh, and the “In The Endgame Now” episodes have been fantastic so far, thank you!)23:27 Jeremy WatsonHey Sean and fellow patrons! Hope everybody is having a great week! I am as excited as anyone about Disney bringing back James Gunn for Vol. 3. I am wondering though, do you know why Disney changed course? Was this the plan all along or was there something else behind the scenes that lead to Disney changing their minds? Thanks!28:58 Jessica PritchettHi Sean. A couple of Captain Marvel-Skrull-related questions for you. The movie seemed to make a point of showing us Talos telling his wife to shield their daughter's eyes, and then the daughter ducking around and seeing Talos shoot a couple of the Kree and get shot. I thought that moment seemed too pointed to be a throwaway even at my first viewing. Do you think this could play into a future MCU and/or Captain Marvel movie, and if so, how? Could the daughter be a future villain, for example? The same question for Monica's comment about loving the Skrulls' eyes — do you think that could be integrated into a later movie? Thanks for all that you do!31:56 Jeb WielandWhat would you like to see from the Disney+ shows in terms of plot? Bucky and Sam buddy cop comedy? Vision and Wanda dramatic romance? Curious what you think we'll see and what you'd prefer to see.34:54 Mookie Johnson1)I know Disney/Marvel gave up their July 2020 release date. If a movie is progressing fast enough to be ready for 2020, can Disney/Marvel pick that date back up or can they use one of the dates Fox claimed prior to the merger?37:12 Mookie Johnson2) Can you give your best guess of the upcoming release order of Nova, Sheng-Chi, Black Panther 2, Dr. Strange 2, Captain Marvel 2, the next Ant-Man and Wasp project, Guardians 3, and Dr. Doom (assuming Fox's project is adjusted instead of scrapped)? Best guess, is that the lineup leading into Avengers 5?41:59 Michael WeaselboyHey Sean how is your week going?? I just wanted to ask a hypothetical question, how would you react if instead of saying James Gunn was returning to make Guardians Vol. 3, what if the news was a new director for the film instead?? Just for example lets say Travis Knight was announced as the new director?? Thoughts??43:44 Derek BeebeHey Sean, it definitely looks like Dark Phoenix will indeed be hitting theaters. Are you confident New Mutants will as well? Do you have any guess to what they'll gross?46:03 Derek BeebeI realize "Civil War" was titled as a Captain America film for contractual reasons, but do you think it would have made more money if they called it "Avengers: Civil War"?48:37 Derek BeebeLet's say Marvel will only make three FF movies. What three stories do you pick?49:57 Derek BeebeI just remembered Black Dwarf has Captain Marvel's uniform tied to his belt in Infinity War, which we got zero reference to in Carol's movie. Do you think Carol's second movie, still set in the past, will show her going up against the Children of Thanos?51:53 AlexDC question: What's your thoughts about Zack Snyder's recent comments defending the creative decision to have Batman kill? I have nothing against Mr. Snyder but I can't help feeling he's fanning the flames with his comments which I can't help but feel are incendiary in nature. Can you see what Snyder is saying?1:00:26 AlexAnother DC question: Snyder recently talked about his original plans for Justice League in a Q&A for a fan screening for BvS and it got me wondering do you think if Warners had not interfered with Snyder and released original better cut of BvS and left Snyder alone on Justice League do you think the movie would've fared better at the box office or do you think the movie still would've bombed just the same?1:01:57 AlexAnother Question: Also what do you think of Snyder's original plans for Justice League? Do YOU think it would've been better than the movie we ultimately ended up getting or do you think Warners made the right decision to meddle as much as they did, and Snyder's vision just wasn't going to cut it after the lousy reception of BvS? What do you think Kevin Feige would do if he was in the same situation?1:14:29 AlexDo you prefer MCU Doom to have a severely scarred face behind the mask like in the John Bryne version or would you prefer they go with the original Stan and Jack version where there's only a mild scar to an otherwise perfect face. I'm leaning towards the former rather than the later.1:15:16 David RosenHey Sean and Friends, Before we get completely dominated by End Game questions and discussion, I still have a few Captain Marvel thoughts I want to ask about. The movie's box office is just about at $915 million as of today (Tuesday). There are a number of reasons one could come up with to explain the amazing success the movie has had so far, including it being Marvel's first major release featuring a female superhero, it's connection to the events of the MCU, the whole troll review bombing (which I think actually helped bring more attention to it for the mainstream audiences), the Marvel brand, it's the final movie leading up the End Game, and the fact that it's just a really fun and entertaining movie. Of all these, what do you think is the main contributing factor to this movie's success or can it be attributed to a perfect storm of scenarios that helped propel this movie to where it will eventually end up? I don't want to take anything away from this movie, but I think there are better movies in the MCU, but not all have been this financially successful. What's different about Captain Marvel?1:21:06 Brett HeierHey Sean, do you think that because heimdall was not in a poster even though he died but gamora and Loki died and they had a poster mean that they will come back? Also, do you think that giving shuri a black and white poster is just to mislead us?1:23:37 Michael ChavezHey Sean! I feel like it's been forever since I've asked a question, but I hope you're well and all the listeners are enjoying the moment (as you have put it recently) as we gear up for Endgame. Is there a particular reason why Marvel has delayed preordering tickets for endgame? I am assuming it's because theaters were waiting for official runtime to plan for showings and whatnot, but it just seems later than normal. Also a quick side note, I have used some of your points in how to view marvel movies (IMAX and/or Dolby) with family and friends and they're hooked on Dolby. Good advice (in the voice of Whiplash).1:29:15 Rodrigo Valverde IIIHey, Sean, new listener to the podcast and love everything about it!If you could pick one DC character to appear in the MCU who would you pick, and which DC character do you think would fit the best in today's MCU?1:30:41 AlexSean, in terms of comic book movies it seems to me that the only comic book movies that do exceptionally well are the Marvel & DC ones so I have to wonder if non-Marvel and non-DC comic book movies will ever reach mainstream popularity. Hellboy I think will flop. It's early tracking so far is is really lukewarm. 1:35:40 Robert ReinekeHi Sean. I know you have a lot of admiration for Short Term 12 and must have thoughts on the signing of Destin Daniel Cretton to direct a Shang-Chi movie. I'm happy for him as I have a lot of admiration for Short Term 12, but I wonder if perhaps Marvel would have been better off with an experienced action director for what should supposedly be a martial arts film. In particular, I think this really needs to have outstanding action direction to connect with the Chinese audience. Regardless, I hope they resist a needle drop of Kung Fu Fighting. What are your thoughts?1:39:59 Brian WhiteHi Sean, I have an interesting theory I've shared on Quora. I think it's originally mine at least. Ego claimed to be a Celestial and he created a planet to contain and protect his Light. Peter Quill as his scion was able to use that energy. We know of the traditional Celestials and they seem to be part of the MCU evidenced by Knowhere being the head of a Celestial and the Collector's presentation of Power Stone users. Maybe a Celestial's armor is merely an advanced and more efficient form of the planet body they start with? What if Odin is a scion of an Ego-like Celestial, Buri or Bor, who created Asgard like Ego created his Moon sized planet? Neither Ego's Moon or Asgard resemble typical planets; the laws of physics seem to bend to their rulers' wills. What if Hela and Thor and all Asgardians in fact are supplemented by the energies of Asgard's Light? Maybe Earth too contains a Celestial's Light and Thor was born from Asgard's and Earth's Celestial scions. This could explain how Hela would lose her primary source of power when Surtur destroys Asgard, but Thor would seem to be unaffected by its destruction. It ironically makes Peter's jealousy of Thor more hilarious in that they are cousins of a sort. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this edition of Jacobin Radio, Suzi talks to legendary street-fighting man, author and playwright Tariq Ali about 1968 — as seen from today, fifty years later. The first cover of Black Dwarf, founded by Tariq and others in May 1968, is reproduced in the latest London Review of Books: “We Shall Fight, We Will Win, Paris, London, Rome, Berlin.” Now there is an emerging strike wave in France — and the slogan is “We are not commemorating 1968, we are continuing 1968.” Suzi talks to Tariq Ali about continuity and change since 1968.

On tonight's podcast, we'll be looking at The Blue Light, a German folk tale brought to us by the masters of the medium, the brothers Grimm. This version of the story comes from Children's and Household Tales, 7th Edition, published in 1857. It's an Aarne-Thompson type 562 folk tale, which means it derives many of it's features, and it's basic structure from a story you might recognize -- Aladdin and his magic lamp. This version tells of a soldier, who after being slighted by his King and trusting in the hospitality of a witch, comes into contact with a Black Dwarf -- who changes his life for the more interesting. The Dwarf is almost a story in and of itself. The original template comes to us from Norse Mythology. These Dwarves had pale skin, dark hair and were more closely related to Vampires than the jolly, bearded folks we've grown to love. They were even allergic to sunlight. One Dwarf in particular, Alviss, tried to claim the hand of Thor's daughter, but waited a bit too long and was turned to stone for his troubles. As for the concept of "Black Dwarves," the Norse liked to use the words for Dark Elves, Black Elves and Dwarves fairly interchangeably, which has lead some scholars to wonder whether they were all the same creature. This particular story doesn't answer that question, but it does try to teach us the value of wells, riches, revenge a single ducet. I hope you enjoy.

This week's episode is titled, “Contra Munda”In our last episode we noted how the Emperor Constantine hoped Christianity would be a unifying influence in the far-flung & troubled Roman Empire. But as soon as he & his co-emperor Licinius passed the Edict of Milan granting religious tolerance to all the Empire's subject, the doctrinal & theological debates that had been in place for years began to surface.When the Church was being hammered by persecution prior to Constantine, Christians had a more imminent threat to deal with. But now that persecution was lifted, secondary issues moved to the foreground.As we saw at the conclusion of the last episode, the Donatists of North Africa asked the Emperor to mediate their dispute with their non-Donatist adversaries. At the Council at Arles, the Donatists lost the debate over whether or not lapsed church leaders could be reinstalled. When they refused to capitulate, Constantine sent troops to Carthage, the lead church in N Africa, to enforce his will. For the first time, the power of the State was used to enforce Church policy on other Christians.An interesting aside from the Council of Arles was the presence of 3 bishops from Britain. This gives us an idea how far the Gospel had penetrated by the beginning of the 4th C.But the Donatist Controversy wasn't the only or near the largest debate that would engulf the Church at that time. The biggest doctrinal challenge facing the Church was how to understand the person of Jesus Christ. A pastor of a church near Alexandria, Egypt named Arius became the champion for a position which said Jesus was human but not God.As we embark on this chapter in Church History, let me begin by saying it was in these early years, as church leaders wrestled with the identity of Christ and His relation to man & God, that the theological groundwork was laid for what we hold today as Orthodoxy. It took many years & several Councils before the Church Fathers worked out the right wording that captures the essence of what we now call orthodox doctrine. Getting there was no easy trip. The journey was fraught with great trouble, distress, and at times, bloodshed. It began with a debate over the nature of Christ; was He God, man, or both? If both, how are we to understand Him; did He have 2 natures or 1 hybrid nature that merged the 2? And if Jesus is God, then how do we describe God as one, yet being both Father & Son? Oh – and don't forget the Holy Spirit? How are we going to describe all this without saying something about God that's untrue?I warn you that as we carry all this into the 5th & 6th Cs, especially the discussions over how to understand the nature of Christ, we're going to see some church leaders acting in a decidedly non-Christian manner. One of the Church Councils called to settle this matter ended up in a bloody riot! So hang on because we have some fun stuff ahead.For now, realize what we're looking at in this era of our review is a big deal and will frame the course of Church life over the next nearly 300 years.How do I explain the debate as it emerged in the challenge Arius presented?Well, because of their pagan background, many people didn't believe God experienced emotions as humans experience them. Yet it's clear from the Gospels Jesus did experience such emotions. Therefore, logic seemed to dictate Jesus could not have been divine, because if He was, then God experienced human emotions. Arius' solution was that Jesus was God's first & greatest creation. Denying that Jesus was eternal, he said, “Once, the Son did not exist.” Arius wanted to get his ideas into the public mind quickly so he set his doctrine to catchy little tunes & soon, many were singing his songs.Arius' position was popular among the common people who found the Christian doctrines of the Incarnation & the Trinity difficult. How could there be 1 God eternally manifest as 3 persons? Arius' description of Jesus as a kind of divine hero beneath the 1 God fit more easily into their pagan background so they adopted his theology. While Arius' teaching spread rapidly among his pagan neighbors, those with a keener awareness of the Bible opposed his aberrant views. They composed their own chorus that today is known as the Gloria Patri – “Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end.”Alexander, the bishop of Alexandria, so Arius' spiritual overseer, led the opposition to Arius and called together a group of Church leaders in 320. They reviewed Arius' theology and declared it heretical. When Arius refused to back down, they excommunicated him. Arius then went to the Empire's Eastern capital at Nicomedia & asked for the support of his friend, the bishop of the church there, a guy named Eusebius. Not the church historian Eusebius who lived at the same time.The 2 most influential churches of the East were set in opposition to each other, Nicomedia, the political headquarters & Alexandria, the intellectual center. Because Arius had Eusebius' backing he felt emboldened to return to Alexandria. When he did, there was rioting in the streets. But then, if you know anything about ancient Alexandria, rioting was a favored past-time. They rioted like we go to a ball game; it was public sport.As the Arian Controversy spread, Emperor Constantine realized if he didn't take action, instead of the Church providing much needed unity for the Empire, it would become one of the major sources of turmoil & unrest. In 325 he called Church leaders far & wide to attend a special council at the city of Nicea in modern Turkey, at his expense. Some 300 bishops managed to make it, enough to make the Council of Nicea a remarkable representation of the whole church. Many of those who attended bore the scars & marks of the Diocletian persecution. When they met, they found a throne set for the Emperor in the midst of the hall. He sat arrayed in richly jeweled robes befitting more an Eastern monarch than an Emperor of Rome.Constantine assumed the Arian Controversy was merely a sematic debate; a petty brueha over words & that a meeting of the minds of Christians leaders was all that was needed to settle the dispute. Yeah, let's just get every together in one place and talk it out man to man, face to face. Surely they'll reach a compromise, right? à So, he commenced the council with a little pep talk about the importance of their task, then turned it over to them. The depth of his naivete was quickly revealed.The account of the finding of the Council reveals that while the doctrinal issue raised by Arius was quickly resolved, it was how Arius was handled by Bishop Alexander that became the main point of debate.Arianism was declared heretical. The Council affirmed both the deity & humanity of Jesus as the Son of God. Constantine urged his friend, Bishop Eusebius of Caesarea, the famous historian, to put forward his creed, his statement of faith as something the entire council could endorse as their united statement. But the Council didn't find Eusebius sufficiently clear on his belief in the deity of Jesus and went instead with a creed offered by the Bishop of the Spanish city of Cordova, a man named Hosius, another favorite of the Emperor's. Still, the Council dithered, & Constantine, with an empire to run, grew impatient & pressed the bishops to endorse what today we know as the Nicean Creed, the accepted standard of Roman & Eastern Churches.I quote the Nicean Creed in full …We believe in one God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible.And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, …Then comes the lines the Council wrote to specifically deal with the Arian error –True God of True God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father (remember that phrase; it'll be important later) by whom all things were made; who for us men, and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and was made man, and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried, and the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of the Father. And he shall come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead, whose kingdom shall have no end.And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified, who spoke by the prophets. And we believe in only one holy, universal and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins. And we look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.Only 2 of the 300 bishops present refused to sign the Creed. Along with Arius, they were exiled. Constantine assumed the Arian Controversy had been dealt with, so the Church would settle down and help him unite the realm. To mark the dawn of a new & glorious day of Church & State cooperation, Constantine held a huge banquet before the bishops headed home.What a sight, these men bearing the scars of the previous emperor's persecution, now the emperor's celebrated guests, eating at his sumptuous table, reclining on his own couch! Guarded by his bodyguard. One man, missing an eye put out by Diocletian, was given special honor; Constantine even kissed the eyeless cheek!But in the years that followed, some of those bishops were banished from their posts when they took umbrage at this or that imperial decision. A hierarchy grew up around Constantine, self-appointed advisors to the Emperor on the state of the Church. If they didn't like a certain fellow, they accused him of some offense, and the newly anointed enemy was exiled with his replacement being someone more amenable to the accuser. And just as often as a bishop ran afoul of Imperial favor & was banished, just that quick he could be called back when Constantine replaced one set of advisors with another. The role of Church leader became a kind of musical chairs. In today, out tomorrow, back the day after, but keep your bags packed at all times.An example of this is the career of Athanasius.Athanasius was a young advisor to Bishop Alexander of Alexandria who led the opposition to Arius. Athanasius was a short & dark-skinned deacon his enemies referred to as the Black Dwarf. As a young man, he spent hours with his heroes, the monks in the wilderness outside Alexandria. The word monk means “alone” & they took their name from the isolation they pursued. Athanasius took it on himself to make sure they had food & supplies as they devoted themselves to God by literally fleeing the world.Athanasius had a keen mind & lived a highly-disciplined life. Even at a young age his brilliance was respected and when Alexander made the trip to Nicaea for the famous Council, he took Athanasius with him. Not long after returning from Nicaea, Alexander fell ill & asked Athanasius to replace him. But Athanasius wanted to serve, not lead. So he fled to his desert friends, the monks. They convinced him of his calling to lead the Church & he returned to Alexandrian as Bishop. He was 33.Constantine was loath to undo the findings of the Council of Nicaea, but he also knew the Arian position was still popular among many f the common folk. He thought it best that Arius be allowed to return to Alexandria as a member of the Church. Thinking that now that Alexander, the man who'd led the opposition was out of the way, Athanasius would knuckle under to Imperial authority and consent to Arius' return. He couldn't have been more wrong.Athanasius locked horns with the Emperor & refused to budge, even when Constantine threatened to banish him. They battled for 5 yrs when finally the Emperor had enough & found Athanasius guilty of treason. In the 40 yrs Athanasius was bishop, he was banished & recalled 5 times as the winds of fortune & imperial favor shifted in the palace. At one point, he was so thoroughly out of political good will every one of his supporters deserted him. It was during this period he wrote & spoke of his devotion & unwavering loyalty to Jesus as the King above all earthly kings, saying that nothing could weaken his resolve to love & serve God, even if it meant, “Athanasius contra munda” = Athanasius against the world.Remember just a moment ago when reading the Nicaean Creed, I mentioned to note the phrase that Jesus was of one substance with the Father. Not long after the Nicaean Council, a group of Church leaders decided to soften the Nicaean position & bring it a little toward the Arian view. They said Jesus wasn't the SAME substance as the Father but was a SIMILAR substance. In Greek, it's the difference of one letter' between homo-ousios – same substance & the new terminology they advocated – homoi-ousios – similar substance.As we'd expect, Athanasius led the classic Nicean interpretation of homo-ousios against the Quasi-Arians and their statement of homoi-ousios. While this may seem an insignificant difference to many of us, it proved to be of monumental importance. If the door was opened in even a small way to begin thinking of Jesus as somehow different in essence from the Father, it wouldn't be long before His deity would be jettisoned entirely. Then we wouldn't be following the Jesus of the Bible; the real Jesus of history. Athanasius' lonely & steadfast determination to hold fast to what the Bible said about God, rather than go along with the politically-minded doctrine-massagers of his day is one of the most important & heroic moments, not just in Church history, but in all history. This was one of those moments when it seems truth hung by a thread; a thread only as think as the letter “i”.We end this episode with this . . .One of Constantine's most important contributions to history was the relocation of his capital to Byzantium from the decayed husk of the once great but now worn-out & tired city of Rome. Byzantium was located at the geographical crossroads for the ancient world and it's a wonder no one had recognized its strategic brilliance before this. It sits a the narrow neck of the Bosporus, linking E & W & controls the flow of maritime trade between the Black & Mediterranean Seas. Located not far from Diocletian's Eastern capital at Nicomedia it meant an easy relocation of the capital. Constantine decided to turn the hundreds year old village into a bright shining new center of civilization and made a good start on the project before his death in 337. Because it was the Eastern capital, it also became a major center & headquarters of the Church, which would eventually vie with Rome for bragging rights over which church ruled the Christian world.At Constantine's death it was as if a message was sent to the frontiers it was time for Rome's enemies to push her borders backwards. In Central Asia, the Huns pressed westward on the Goths, who in turn pressed in on Rome's Eastern Frontier. Another group known as the Visigoths eventually made it all the way to Rome in 410 & sacked the city. Their leader was Alaric, who'd been influenced by Arianism.Over the next years, other Easterners made their way across Europe, bringing more ruin. Each successive wave was like another slap to the face of once great Rome which by that time was little more than a punch-drunk & washed up has-been. The Franks, Alans, Vandals & Ostrogoths all took a turn knocking the Romans about.The Vandals, who began their campaign of terror & pillage in the steppes of Asia, crossed the Rhine, plowed a deep furrow S into Spain, took ship to cross the Straits of Gibraltar & landed in N Africa where they heard fabulous wealth awaited. Furious that the riches they dreamed of weren't there, they went on a rampage of destruction that's bequeathed their name “Vandal” to later generations as meaning someone out to wreck wanton & pointless ruination.One of the cities they laid siege to in N Africa was Hippo, where a Bishop named Augustine served as pastor. Augustine became one of the most important theologians of church history. He died during the siege by the Vandals. When they finally conquered & destroyed the city, the Vandals so respected Augustine they took pains to preserve his church & the extensive library he'd accumulated.Augustine of Hippo is a towering influence in church history and one that we'll return to in a future episode.
