Hello @tfcoates
I was spellbound reading this. Quite an interesting record of Hypatia achievements and ingenuity. How she gradually rise to even outshine her own Dad piqued me.
Honestly, the atrocities of early Christians were nothing to write home about. The untimely death of this learned woman, was one of them. Damn!
Feeling like denouncing my faith! Damn!
Regards.

Hi @eurogee, might be a bit early to denounce your faith! Remember this is simply the birth of the Christianity and the religion has come a long way since them. In more recent times many famous scientists who made startling breakthroughs were very religious. Think of Gregor Mendel, William Turner and Robert Boyle.
I don't think the goal here is religion bashing, so much as to paint a picture of how any group when given too much power and with a lack of tolerence can commit atrocities.
I hear. Thanks
