"The collapse of the Roman Empire and the arrival of the Barbarians  was due to the spread of homosexuality," the Daily Mail quoted the  vice-president of Italy's prestigious Centre for National Research as  saying in a radio interview.
"The Roman colony of Carthage was a  paradise for homosexuals and they infected many others. The invasion of  the Barbarians was seen as punishment for this moral transgression." It  is well-known that effeminate men and homosexuals have no place in the  kingdom of God, he said. "Homosexuality was not rife among the  Barbarians and this shows God's justice throughout history," De Mattei  stated.

sooo.... since Carthage was where the vandals stopped.. now if Aachen or Köln had been as attractive as Carthage maybe they would have stopped there.

The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Women want me. Men want to be with me.

I blame handing power over to outsiders which couldn't reach the top of the tree. Alaric basically rampaged through italy sacking rome because they wouldn't make him a Dux or Magistrii Militium (sp?).

Wish I had a nickel for every time I've heard that absurd association. It's still just as BS as it ever was. I suppose we'll not be giving gays the credit for the rise of Greece though.

i blame wealth and christianity.

I blame plague, economic collapse, and constant war.

Wait wealth?  By the last two hundred years inflation was so bad the taxes were collected directly in goods and services.

Anyway gayness of the Roman variety (penetrating slaves and boys) was so universal during the entire history of the Republic/Empire I find this assertion: total fail.  If anything homoness went down at the end.

So what you're saying is that Rome fell because it wasn't gay enough? :hmm:

The barbarians sure took their damn time if they were sent to stamp out the gayness in Rome.
