Too bad Julian "the apostate" died too early.

His works are neo-pagan tier, which is amazing in the age of actual paganism.
>>
>>2155256
Well he was raised Christian, so it's not surprising he had no understanding of paganism when he emerged out of a tradition that is its complete opposite.

Didn't Julian add the Abrahamic God to the Roman Pantheon, thinking it was just the Jewish god and therefore would piss off the Christians? I read it somehwere but don't know where.

He was steeped in classic (read: pagan) philosophy though.

I know he promised to rebuild the Jewish temple. But then he died.

Julian was raised a Christian but spent most of his life learning the traditional Pagan religion. It's part of why he was so beloved by his legions and the commoners in the area after he got sent west.

No, Julian BTFO Christianity, but he lost because he couldn't find a way to placate the Eastern Christian legions. In an attempt to show the superiority of Hellenismos (And to get enough money to bribe them to put up with his religious reforms) he decided to try and defeat Rome's traditional enemy, Persia. He ended up dying like an idiot in doing so.

His writings that are left (Which by the recorders own admission aren't the ones that couldn't be refuted, and even then are the ones that weren't destroyed by Muslims, time, or Byzantine autism) are pretty interesting though. They include arguments we see today from nationalists, Atheists, and Jews.

Yes you may

Nobody can be an apostate when it comes to Christianity. If you turn away from God, you were never among the elect and therfore never saved in the first place.

Athanasius outlasted him. Just another notch in his belt, really.
