    I wrote a fiction story about that moment when St Poul met epicurean philosophers. I'll love to let you read it, but it is in Italian. :(

    I noted when I looked at your page Michele that the Google translate did a reasonable job from Italian to English. Do you have it online where we could try that?

    Sent!
    I was christian. And I started writing this story to put in evidence what was similar in Epicureanism a Cristianity. Just writing this I changed my mind. And the difference became more and more evident every page. So I made my choice.
    I really hope you enjoy.
