I should say the comments about the Greeks not being gay or killing people for being gay.
But I do wonder what that person would have thought about the Spartans being demolished by the Sacred band.
"Greece" (more like the Eastern Provinces of the Roman Empire) started "following Christianity" as a state-mandated policy right around the time they closed Plato's academy - and I think that's a Greece that is no longer Ancient (tm)
The professor explained Greek mythology & that people really created these myths. One guy piped up to contest the whole entire premise of Greek mythology because he was certain someone there believed in a Christian God.
A Spanish teacher in the department I was working in came back from class one day (ca 1981) and told us she'd showed a slide of a gorge and said the formation was x thousands of years old, and somebody popped up to his feet and said "I dispute that!"
