But that is the Common Opinion of Saint Gildas, which you said is wrong. Gildas was ina bad mood about the corruption in the British state and guessed that it would all end in tears. Of all the people in 550 A.D. who guessed what would happen next, Saint Gildas is famous for guessing correctly.
Gildas did not have magical powers, he guessed correctly and all the people who guessed wrongly ain't famous.
But that is the Common Opinion about St. Gildas and you said it's wrong.
I skimmed through "de Excidio" a million years ago. You hae studied it thoroughly, so answer me this:
Did Gildas prophecy generic doom and gloom upon the Kings or did he specifically threaten Barbarian invasion?
Did Gildas assert precise dates for the Apocalypse?
Did you notice the pune in sentence #2. "St Gildas was Ina bad mood," referring to King Ina, one of the Saxon tyrants My punes are more infallible than pope Gregory's.
