The 1st Century Pax Romana wasn't actually peaceful. In fact, in that time the Romans conquered all of England, large parts of Asia Minor, Palestine, and Mesopotamia. Pax Romana actually refers to the relative paucity of civil war in the early Roman Empire. (As in, it only happened once or twice.)
So saying "Pax * implies no wars are being fought anywhere" is untrue to the concept of Pax *
Though I suppose a great deal of the early (pre-Independence) immigration was for religious reasons. It really does make sense for those two to be joined like that in the modern US.
Jesus specifically discouraged tax evasion... hmm. American Christians don't actually follow Christianity. Shocker.
And it seems like every week I have to bridge several subnets with OSPF and all I have is my tablet.
Thank you, Cisco, for understanding our needs so well.
