The New Constantine: Putin Knows Religion Is The Opiate Of The Masses

• http://www.shtfplan.com, Jeremiah Johnson

There was a man behind much of it, and that man was the Roman Emperor Constantine.  Years earlier, Constantine had experienced a vision at the battle of Milvian Bridge.

A light appeared to him in the heavens, with a sign of the crucifix, and a voice that told him "IN HOC SIGNO VINCES," Latin for "in this sign shall you conquer."  It was shortly afterward that Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire.  At the time, the Empire was in a shambles, and Constantine admitted upon his death-bed that while not believing in all of Christianity's tenets (he himself followed Mithraism), he knew it to be a congealing force to dispel the fragmentation and postpone the fall of the Roman Empire.
