To this day In the Orthodox Liturgy, just before the 'liturgy of the faithful', the priest or deacon says "all catechumens depart, let no catechumen remain". Then, just before the Creed, they say, "the doors, the doors". Indicating that they used to lock the doors at this part of the Liturgy.
The design and size of the baptismal font in Dura-Europos suggest that it was used for full immersion baptisms, where the candidate would have been fully submerged in the water. The shape of the font and the steps leading down into it indicate that it was designed to facilitate this immersion ritual.
Rome has some 600 miles of catacombs altogether, and today can even be found pictures of the baby Horus being held by the Virgin Isis-Meri (Mary) in what scholars have claimed is the original "Madonna and Child".Hundreds of temples, sculptures, fragments and inscriptions dedicated to Mithras have likewise been found. The Mithraic cave temple on Vatican Hill that was seized and destroyed by literalist Christians in 376 CE, also lies directly underneath the Vatican.
The prohibition is part of the 1st Commandment, not the second, and God Himself told Moses to make graven images (the bronze serpent, the tabernacle, Solomon's temple, the Ark of the Covenant). So, the problem of iconography in the Judeo-Christian tradition is not simply resolved by saying that images were absolutely prohibited and that the rules was not always followed. That's a false solution for a false problem.
The Most High said that he will revile the truth at the end, So weather or not you or eney gentiles tell us the truth it is written in the Bible we will know the History of The Hebrew Israelite.

The city was larger than portrayed here. The Jewish synagogue dates back to a couple hundred year BC, not 256 AD.
Peter being buried in Rome is more a matter of faith than established historical fact
You sure did spin that skin color on those paintings.
Thank you for the informative video.
First .
It was not Christian art, rather Mithraism. True Christians would never
conflate the Dieties.
