It does appear that Sadler's Casca is a combo of 2 medieval legends - Longinus and The Wandering Jew. However, did Sadler do the combining or was he only...
I have been up all night reading these posts, I recall one question about a Casca movie. I found the following link that mentions our Casca. I was not aware...
... Casca. ... had ... NOTE: The page did not Post as I had seen it. Under the Title Roar scroll down to the 5th Roar reference: Roar TV Series/Fox....
I watched this show faithfully. And yes Casca is in the show as a man condemnded to live until the Second Coming. Makes you wonder. Did the people behind...
Prophecy is not something that is necessarily cut in stone. In the Bible, it was prophesied that the Children of Israel would spend 400 years in exile in...
I had not realized that there is a variant of the Legend of Longinus that likewise makes him too immortal. It is not the primary part of the legend. I...
The premise of this TV show was absurd. It shows the Irish in 400 AD resisting a Roman INVASION -- this at a time when the legions were WITHDRAWING from...
As a faithful viewer of the show -- which I was not -- I will take your word for it that the "Longinus" of this show was in fact defined as having been the...
There was one episode where Longinus has a flashback and he is at the Cross and when he stabs Jesus the blood pours over his hands. There was no curse...
Now I would like to see this series myself, even if the premise of a Roman INVASION of Ireland in 400 AD is absurd. WOuld you know if the series is available...

... right ... villians to ... Thank you so much, Mark! Coming from one that I know to be a hardcore Casca fan, that means a lot. The best is yet to come... ...
And? Suppose Casca decides to be a farmer instead. What's God gonna do? hit him with a lightning bolt? The Almighty's kinda painted Himself into a corner with...
I personally want to thank those thus far who have taken their time and energy to read and comment on my 1st novel. In today's busy world, I know it is more...
exactly. What if Duncan, Amanda and Methos decide that they don't want to kill each other. Then what? "God chose those whom the world considers absurd to...

Most churches are named after people who have died. "God chose those whom the world considers absurd to shame the wise; he singled out the weak of the world to...

You're missing my point; I was referring to Christianity itself, not merely its many denominations or outbuildings; when I said "church", I was speaking...
No problem. I can have a weird sense of humor sometimes myself. If I had known it was meant to be a joke, I would not have said anything. I sometimes...
Another point is that Casca does not physically age, even though time passes. Casca has never been 40, 50 or 60, he has been the same age 2000 times over again...
Oh, it gets better; according to this site http://www.catholic.org/saints/saint.php?saint_id=11 Longinus was a martyr who eventually attained sainthood. I...
True, but physiology is only one function of the aging process. There is the accretion of experience and (presumably) the development of knowledge thereby....

Some interesting points, Altosackbuteer. However, I think we don't want to get into the various beliefs of different Christian and Jewish sects about prayer...
Harriet, in a recent email, I explained how I thought the curse of always being a soldier works - "Apparently, Casca won't be struck by a lightning bolt if he...
Mark, many times Casca complains that he is forever fighting and wishes for an end to it. You've explained one way that the curse forces him to battle even...
Great work, Harriet! According to your link, "Longinus" was a NEARLY BLIND CENTURION whose eyes were drenched with Jesus' blood after stabbing him, thereby ...
There are three certain 'spears of Longinus'. One, as altosackbuteer rightly states, is in Vienna, and this was the one seized by the Nazis after the...
