Beschreibung

Print on Demand. This book is an early defense of Christianity written in the form of a dialogue between a pagan and a Christian. The author, a lawyer in ancient Rome, was well-versed in pagan philosophy and literature, and he uses his knowledge to argue for the superiority of Christianity over paganism. He presents the arguments for and against each religion, and in doing so, he provides a valuable glimpse into the religious beliefs and practices of the early Church. The book is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity or the development of Western thought. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

But, taking for granted the superior value of this dialogue, additional testimony to which, if needed, might easily be adduced, I proceed to offer a few remarks on the plan which has been pursued by me in the present edition.
