As I already said before, the links between the martyr concept of the monotheistic religions are obviously complex, even between the two main currents of Islam.The Koranic and prophetic references are numerous about the martyr. However, the debate focuses on the question of what is the noble cause for which he is worthy of sacrificing himself? ...

Briefly, this cathedral was largely destroyed during an earthquake in 2011: the bell tower and part of the nave collapsed. The decision to demolish it in 2012 was taken and an appeal for its restoration was rejected in 2013.

Old Testament law nowhere prohibits the burning of a dead human body, nor does it curse or judge cremated persons.Crémation existed in biblical times, but it was not commonly practiced by the Israelites or New Testament believers. In the cultures of biblical times, the dead were usually buried in a tomb, a cave or directly in the ground.

In early Christian theology, martyrdom was of paramount importance. For the first Christians, the word of Jesus "you will drink the cup that I must drink" was an invitation to martyrdom. Dying for the faith guaranteed immediate access to paradise, where the martyrs sat on a throne near God himself. The early Christians buried their loved ones near the...

The catacombs are both pagan and Christian. The most famous and important are used by the Christian religion but there are also some among the pagans, the Phoenicians, the Etruscans or the Jews.

This mosaic is from the 5th century. For several centuries Christ was generally depicted as a young, beardless man and it was not until much later that paintings of Christ began to show him as older and with a beard.
