The Octavius of Minucius Felix is a book written by the early Christian apologist Minucius Felix. It is a dialogue between two characters, Octavius and Caecilius, discussing the nature of Christianity and its relationship to traditional Roman religion. Octavius argues that Christianity is a superior religion to the traditional Roman gods, while Caecilius defends the traditional religion. Throughout the dialogue, Octavius presents a number of arguments for the superiority of Christianity, including its moral teachings, its belief in one God, and its promise of eternal life. The book is an important work of early Christian apologetics, and provides insight into the early Christian debates with the Roman Empire.Although to you, Marcus my brother, the subject on which especially we are inquiring is not in doubt, inasmuch as, being carefully informed in both kinds of life, you have rejected the one and assented to the other, yet in file present case your mind must be so fashioned that you may hold the balance of a most just judge, nor lean with a disposition to one side (more than another), lest your decision may seem not to arise so much from our arguments, as to be originated from your own perceptions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
