Civis Romanum Sum!


Today is the 1646th anniversary of the Edict of Thessalonica, by which the Emperor Theodosius I and his Co-Emperors in the West, Gratian and Valentinian II, declared that all Nicene Christians were Roman Citizens.

Thus, all Catholics can proudly declare with St Paul: "I am a Roman Citizen" ~ Acts 22:27


It is also the 1754th anniversary of the birth of St Constantine the Great, Equal to the Apostles.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
