About this episode
The episode discusses the argument that the West was founded on Greco-Romanism rather than Christianity, featuring guest Laurent Guyénot.
This is a massive topic—so big it couldn't fit into one episode, so I've split it into two. This is part one. My guest is French author Laurent Guyénot, who's written extensively on the Roman Empire and its relationship with Paganism, Christianity, Judaism, and Stoicism. He argues that, contrary to popular belief, the West—rooted in Rome—wasn't founded on Christianity, but on Greco-Romanism. Christianity, he says, was a significant addition, but may have actually accelerated the Empire's downfall. ➡️ jermwarfare.com ➡️ ukcolumn.org
