Athanasius

edit

In reading this article today, I was surprised that it was demoted from FA status. However, I did note the absence of a mention of Athanasius of Alexandria, whose pretty bad page I edited last week, and which still includes quotes from this Gregory. Frankly, I don't have the time (or probably the background) to edit that article into the pretty decent shape that this article's in, so if Majoreditor or someone else wants a big project, here's a heads up (or plea about another vital article). Or if someone wants a minor project, I'd be interested in any links between the two important figures in the fight against Arianism. I think Athanasius was Gregory's mentor, and perhaps Athanasius was allowed to return to Alexandria though Gregory's good offices (and connections with Emperors Justin and Valens), but both traveled around a lot and I don't have time to find the exact time and place connection.Jweaver28 (talk) 11:19, 9 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

"Gregory's Holy Day"?

edit

"The Roman Catholic Church observes his feast day on 2 January, which is also Gregory's Holy Day" What is "Holy Day" in this context? distinct from his feast day. --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 14:19, 13 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
