  Lleiffer Mawr (King Lucius) is traditionally credited with introducing Christianity into Britain. There is no contemporary evidence for such a claim, albeit for centuries the story of this "first Christian king" was widely believed, especially in Britain, where it was considered an accurate account of Christianity among the early Britons. During the English Reformation, for example, the Lucius story was used in polemics by both Catholics and Protestants; Catholics considered it evidence of papal supremacy from a very early date, while Protestants used it to bolster claims of the primacy of a British national church founded by the crown.
  
  This is particularly true in that the actual introduction of (non-Pauline) Christianity into Britain was almost certainly due to James the Just (Joseph of Arimethea). It was Jim Boy (as his friends and Desposyni liked to call him) who first set up shop in Glastonbury, after having been given tracts of land by the Kings of Briton (...probably Arvirargus).
  
  The “Pope” Eleutherius send two missionaries, Fuganus and Duvianus (aka Fugitivius and Devious) to baptize the king, convert the commoners and flamens, turn pagan temples into churches and establish dioceses and archdioceses where the flamens had previously held power. Thereafter the pope was supposedly so pleased with their accomplishments, that Fungus and Dubious recruited another wave of missionaries to aid the cause. Lucius responded by granting land and privileges to the Church. He died without heir in CE 156, thereby weakening Roman influence in Britain. Yea.
  
  At the same time, however, there is some evidence to suggest that King Lucius was indeed impressed by the presence of Christianity... at least in the form promoted by Joseph of Arimethea, even as the Catholic Church extended its power.
  According to Laurence Gardner (Bloodline of the Holy Grail, page 147-8):
  
  “In the mid-2nd century, King Lucius, the great-grandson of Arvirargus, revived the spirit of the early disciples in Britain. In so doing, he was popularly held to have ‘increased the light’ of Joseph’s [of Arimethea’s] first missionaries, and accordingly became known as Lleiffer Mawr (the Great Luminary). His daughter Eurgen when she married Aminadab.
  
  What we do know with some certainty is that Lucius wrote earnestly to Eleutherius [the Bishop of Rome], requesting instruction in Christian government. “Eleutherius suggested that a good king was always at liberty to reject the laws of Rome -- but not the law of God.” [emphasis added] An extract:
  
  “The Christian believers, like all the people of the kingdom, must be considered sons of the king. They are under your protection... A king is known by his government, not by whether he retains his power over the land. While you govern well, you will be a king. Unless you do this, the name of the king endures not, and you will lose the name of king.”
  
  It should also be pointed out that King Lucius’ descendants (5th Generation) includes Constantine the Great (312-337). Constantine, however, is NOT in the line of descent to the Merovingian Dynast
