Jordan’s Archaeological Distortion Masks True Ecclesial Apostasy
EWTN News portal (December 21, 2025) reports the reopening of an Aqaba church ruin as a “rare window into pre-Constantinian Christianity,” framing this archaeological site as evidence of early Christian communal organization while promoting Jordan’s “religious plurality.” The excavation team under Thomas Parker claims the structure dates to 293–303 AD, presenting pottery, glass lamps, and alleged bronze cross fragments as proof of Christian worship before Constantine’s Edict of Milan.
