Muso is not an extremist -

he always walks with his head bowed as he is a wise man.

Only the enslaved and the timid walk with their heads bowed

One must walk upright, with integrity and honour

Dear simian one,
The statement is figurative - it is talking about pride.

A wise man should be humble - as is our master Light.

humility is independent of the angle with which your head intersects a line parallel to the horizon

you are condemned

I find that polytheists are probably the least religiously bigoted.

You are stupid aren't you?

Ever heard of the Roman polytheists feeding Christians to the lions?

Well as I said, I am only going from experience. I've never actually met any real Ancient Romans, so I can't comment on their attitude. I know that the gladiatorii spectaculi were arranged by corrupt Roman Emperors, and I know that the Christians of the time were treated as subversives. (For example - the monks in Alexandria at the time of Hypatia.) As far as the crowd was concerned, they probably just enjoyed the show, regardless of the religious persuasion of the convicted ones.

Don't forget that the Roman empire included many different cultures, and that not all Roman Emperors were actually from Rome or even Italy. For example, Claudius, Stilicho, Caracalla, Septimius Severus, Elagabalus etc.

As far as Indians are concerned, my experience has been with educated Indians in Australia. Generally I have found that "belief" is not the subject of decent conversation. It's more about cultural tradition.

I haven't heard many problems with the Bahaii.

Actually I know one woman in Florida who has visited Israel, and she said that they treated her as an honorary Jew. She has also been to a number of Arabic speaking countries and speaks fluent Arabic. Her ancestry is German.

maybe she worked for MOSSAD?

She would find that very amusing.

Not bad - for a moderator.

Maybe the trope of bloodthirsty-Roman proles is just that. Perhaps the Circus Maximus was an elaborate spectacle to demonstrate Caesar’s power - the way the Chinese drive those to be executed in trucks through the city. The way the Amerikans show protesters - and supporters - outside jails on CNN and Fox. Execution as spectacle. After all, why else let blood?

Maybe the circus wasn’t a sport at all. Or - maybe sporting events themselves started as a way to express the emperor’s power over life.

You’ve piqued my curiousity, Muso. What have you been reading?

I actually re-live it with re-enactments and even in Italy I have been called on to advise on details. (That sound like a wank LOL). I'll PM you some time.
