I should acquire the San Pellegrino instead of Ollie because of multiple vindications and reasons. First off, I have a suspicion that Ollie peculated the drink twice yesterday. He already possesses a reputation for stealing belongings from others. Second, Ollie always sits on his fat ass playing Roblox and lounging around every day. If anything, I am involved in more physical activity and therefore deserve the drink more than he does. Lastly, Ollie is a growing boy who already eats plenty of processed sugar every day, and giving him the San Pellegrino will only aggravate his

St. Ignatius of Antioch understood the Christian faith to be objective and sensible, stating that Christianity is fundamentally a religion based in historic, tangible realties . He was adamant to the fact that Jesus Christ was a real human with real flesh; he encountered real suffering and died a truly human death. Ignatius saw Christian faith and the person of Jesus Christ in such a way that it put him at odds with the Gnostics, who held to a Docetic Christology that was circulating widely among the Church. For Ignatius, this was a serious issue that needed to be addressed due to the purity of the faith and the truth it held.

In addition, many saints and early Christian martyrs were passionate and stalwart in their faith in Jesus Christ, however, few were as resilient and daring as Saint Sebastian. Born in the mid-third century AD, very little is known about Saint Sebastian's early life except that it is believed that he was originally from a small France town called Narbonne and he might have been educated in Milan. After his teenage years, Saint Sebastian joined the Roman Army in 283 AD with an ulterior motive to protect and help other Christians who were being persecuted by the Romans.

This allows the enslaved group to preserve their own culture, beliefs, and traditions in a way that blends and melds with Roman Catholic tendencies and beliefs as the group is forced to conform to Christian ways, worshipping a God and saint’s unknown to them and following strict rules. This new religion of the enslaved people comes to be known as Santeria, a name given for deviant

Saints Perpetua, Saint Felicity along with several others showed bravery a courageousness when they refused to renounce their faith as Christians during the reign of Emperor Diocletian in Rome sometime between 202-203 A.D. During this time, Christianity was not a recognized religion, therefore, it was illegal and anyone who was found practising Christianity was sentenced to death if they did not abide by the accustomed religion practised. Many of Romans practiced polytheism which is the worshiping of multiple deities, which are usually assembled into a pantheon of gods and goddesses.
