Thus, when the Visigoths, whom the Romans considered uncultured and inferior, took the city of Rome and sacked it in 410, the world was stunned. It made theologians of the newly Christianized empire question God’s plan on Earth.

During this time, J. Robert Oppenheimer emerged as an extraordinary scientific mind in the United States.
