Christian fact...Republic of Georgia

Post by averagejoe »

Republic of Georgia!

Named after a Christian Martyr!

Georgia Coat of Arms with an image of Saint George, riding a horse trampling upon a crawling dragon, whose head is pierced by the saint's spear, all of them Argent.

The Republic of Georgia is named after Christian Martyr St. George. A Roman soldier turned Christian!

I find it rather amusing that you chose a figure who was famous for slaying dragons as proof of Christian historical accuracy and facts.

Perhaps you need to do further research before calling someone uninformed.
There are as many myths, tales and fallacies surrounding St /George and what the dragon actually symbolizes as there are religions in the world.
There's no historical evidence to suggest that your version is the correct one.

Really....it's interesting that atheists claim everything about Christianity is a myth.

Yes you are uniformed.....

What myths, tales and fallacies?
To PC liberals who are offended at the Christ child in a manger, I have GREAT news for you! The next time you see Him, he won't be in a manger! Sadly, if you can't handle His first appearance, you're REALLY not going to like His second appearance.

St. George is the patron Saint of England, Portugal, Georgia, Germany, Aragon, Catalonia, Genoa and Venice.

And of the Crusaders, soldiers and Boy Scouts.

Whats a "Chritian"?
My Wife asked me if I knew what her favorite flower was?
Apparently "Robin Hood All Purpose" was the wrong answer!
