[edit] Removed Portion

I'll put this here, it seems the person had a thought but it didn't come out right:

"This evidence has inspired many to retrace the pre-roman church to institude a completing of the first reformation back to the Acts model of Christianity, which is more like pre-rabbinical Judaism with acception that Jesus Christ had fulfilled the law so that others could follow Him by grace to be conformed to His image."

[edit] Place of Birth

Does anyone know where in Scotland Hislop was born, and brought-up? Also schooling and university (if any) would be useful for article.--Mais oui! 08:59, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Venus

Venus was not the Roman mother goddess and Cupid was a male deity. Venus was the goddess of love. The Romans permitted worship of Cybel the Syrian mother goddess, but as she was a foreign deity her cult was merely tolerated. Hislop was a poor scholar and makes me ashamed of my Scottish ancestory.
