"Roman! won't be another like it until.............."
Yeah.Roman civilization fell because the majority of its citizens changed from being unselfish to selfish. And this is the change from the Patrist to Matrist state observed by G.R. Taylor in his prophetic work 'Sex In History'. It is the inevitable degeneration of a community from self-sacrifice to self-indulgence; from strength to weakness; from revering truth to embracing lies.
In "The History Of The Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire" Edward Gibbon remarked in Chapter II, in the paragraph titled Decline of Courage:
"The minds of men were gradually reduced to the same level, the fire of genius was extinguished, and even the military spirit evaporated."
revealing that he believed the Romans became stupid and cowardly. Hope i will not be around to see it right here.
