If this is another name for a page that already exists could someone more knowledgeable than me make a redirect. Or if not could some make an article.--BirgitteSB 16:34, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I'd like to see some discussion on whether the 7th council of Nicea opened the door for idolatry within the church. Lord willing, this will be a part of my doctoral dissertation.

There was no 7th council of Nicaea (so far anyway). If you're aiming for a Ph.D. with this sort of sloppiness, the Lord help you. Also, it is customary to sign your contributions to the talk page. Freederick 16:48, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hadrian?

The article says:

...the patriarch sent a full account of the proceedings of the council to Hadrian, who had it translated.

Now emperor Hadrian, to whose page the text links, died (as a stalwart pagan) in 138 AD; the council met in 787 AD; what gives?

Was there a (major!) miracle involved, or was it actually Pope Adrian I to whom the text was sent? I have edited the text, provisionally, as I can only guess what the author meant. Freederick 16:38, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
