Council of Chalcedon

The Council of Chalcedon was called in 451 CE by the Roman Emperor Marcian (r. 450-457) to settle debates regarding the nature (hypostases, "reality") of Christ that had begun at two earlier meetings in Ephesus (431 CE and 439 CE). The question was whether Christ was human or divine, a man who became God (through the resurrection and ascension) or God who became a man (through the incarnation, "taking on flesh"), and how his humanity and divinity affected his essence and being, if at all.

Shortly after Emperor Constantine's conversion to Christianity in 312 CE, an Alexandrian presbyter, Arius, applying logic, had simply taught that if God created everything in the universe, then at some point he must have created Christ. This caused debates and even riots throughout the cities of the Roman Empire. If Christ was a creature, then he was subordinate to God. Seeking empire-wide unity, Constantine I (r. 306-337 CE) called for a council meeting at Nicaea in 325 to settle the matter.

The First Council of Nicaea produced what became known as the concept of the Trinity. This concept expressed the belief that Christ was of the identical essence of God, who had manifested himself in the earthly Jesus of Nazareth. It produced the innovation of a creed that dictated what all Christians should believe. The Nicene Creed was now enforced by the legions of the Roman emperor, and Arianism was condemned as heresy. However, those who sided with Arius continued to incorporate his teachings in their communities. One of Constantine's sons, Constantius II (r. 337-361 CE), was an Arian Christian.

With the beginning of the barbarian invasions in this period, Christians were urged to be patriotic Christians, in line with the Imperial Church. However, the Antiochene and Alexandrian communities continued to debate which emperors had such authority (legitimacy), depending upon their views of continuing Arianism at their courts and other topics. The other problem was that the Council of Nicaea only addressed the relationship between God and Christ but said nothing about his nature.

Struggle Among the Sees

For several centuries, Christian bishops had competed with each other in relation to who had the authority to dictate beliefs and rituals for all Christians. The major sees (dioceses) of bishops were Jerusalem, Antioch, Alexandria, Constantinople, and Rome. The First Council of Constantinople in 381 elevated Rome above all others (as the site of martyrdom of Saint Peter and Paul the Apostle). Alexandria, which had several Christian schools of philosophy, saw this as an insult to their prestige. Antioch resented it because they claimed their community was the first to be called Christians (from Luke's Acts of the Apostles). Jerusalem was the most insulted, as this was the site of the trial and crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth and his resurrection. Thrown into this mix were three more heresies that ultimately required more imperial anathemas and dictates: Paulinism, Novatianism, and Nestorianism.

Dear Lord, help me to not be afraid. Make me strong against worry and fear and bring peace. Lord, I don't want to be a worrier, I want to be a warrior for you. Thank you for fighting for me when I struggle to do it myself. I pray this all in Jesus' powerful name. Amen!

you raphael simps who write dom daddy raph because you cannot handle him as the 100% canon two pump chump bottom cringe clown are fucking hilarious and need a reality check

just saying

Thank you for your ask! (not really, no).

Oh fuck, here we go again. I'll reply to this I know I shouldn't but I will. But in all honestly, for the last time. I will speak on this subject no more.

First, canon does not say that. Canon leaves room for interpretation.

That being said, do I think canon intended for the player to interpret this way? Sadly, yes. I believe that was the intention, the way it was written and conveyed, to reduce him to a laughing stock (once again, nothing bad with being a bottom and bad in bed per se, it's about the delivery), and it worked, as per 90% of comments under any Raphael Reddit thread, YouTube video.

“Two pump chump bottom cringe clown" (c) would now remain to be Raphael's mainstream legacy. Do I still think it's juvenile to reiterate this point ad infinitum? Yes!

Do I hate it? Honestly? Yes. I personally hated this whole part, it would be dishonest of me to claim otherwise.

Take Irenicus from BG2. Now picture that: you are the Bhaalspawn from BG2, in Irenicus's dungeon, scared shitless of him and you encounter his nymph concubines. They say: oh and by the way Irenicus is a TWO PUMP CHUMP and his dick is like SUPER small. Unreliable source? Sure.

Now the end game, final confrontation in hells, and you tell Irenicus HAHA BURN IN HELL TWO PUMP CHUMP BABY DICK AHAHA.

...

....

WTF?

After this encounter if it was written LIKE THAT I don't think we would have seen Irenicus in top-10 game villains of all time. Why would I take Irenicus seriously if his creators didn’t? And this is exactly what bloody happened to Raphael. That’s 90% of what is discussed of him nowadays outside of the Raphael girlies corner.

What I meant to say, yes, I write dom (switch, actually, but it's not obvious in the first chapter) Raphael because it's my copium.
