Despite what you may think, Sister Mary Elephant is not old enough to remember back that far.
Ask her, "What were the Romans doing...using diplomacy to establish empire?"

If Sister Mary Elephant is a teacher, she needs to pack her trunk with some history books, particularly about the Roman Empire. Britian wasn't even finally invaded until after the presumed date of the death of Christ. Just refer the sister to the Boudicaan revolt and the fights against the Druids leading to the massacre on Anglesey.

I'm afraid Sr Mary Elephant doesn't know much about history. The battles mentioned above are correct, and what about Asia & Africa, or the Americas? Did the Aborginies (sp?) have wars in Australia?

Fundies no longer in basic terms dont get theology, yet they dont see the value of the Virgin Mary. Ex. The Ark of the Covenant bore the regulation of the Jews, Mary in her womb bore the Gospel (Jesus Christ). Mary, in the past the sunrise of creation, replaced into soley chosen from the commencing up of the international to be the mummy of Jesus the incarnate understand God. And after the Angel stated to her "Hail crammed with Grace! The Lord is with thee" Luke a million:28 Mary spoke back asserting "i'm the handmaid of the Lord be it finished unto in accordance on your be conscious" Luke a million:38 And at that appropriate 2nd the Holy Spirit chanced on her and he or she replaced into conceived via him, and the incarnate understand God took on our humanity, and Mary took on Divine Motherhood. Mary is seen by using fact the daughter of God the daddy, the mummy of God the Son, and the better 0.5 God the Holy Spirit"

the Romans were at war during that entire period. In point of fact, Emporer Hadrian visited England in 122 AD and built Hadrian's Wall across England (known at the time as Londinium) to keep the warring pictish tribes from razing villages. The wall still stands across much of England.
Plenty of other wars too, during that period.
Afraid your teacher is a bit of a propagandist. :(

~And now you know why one should not rely on the clergy when it comes to issues of history (or science). By the way, Sister Mary "Elephant"? What, one of Hannibal's great gray steeds was sainted when I wasn't looking?

Im afraid she is wrong. Jerusalem itself was all but razed to the ground by the Romans around the year 70.
