<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Herberto, post: 2785507, member: 74222&quot;]Expecting the Christian scholars to use energy and ink in preserving subversive thoughts/materials is not quite logical.

But we have to see what the contemporary ethical context it was doing in. Suppressing subversive thoughts or the concept of censorships already existed back during the time of Plato, so it was not like Justinian did something Pagan emperors did not do.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
