Constantine, a follower of Mithras and with his imperial cult of the Invincible Sun, removed any persecution of Christians, allowing them to expand their influence and coverage. He had decided to use their system of bishops to give himself another arm of government together with his secular power as emperor.
Constantine the Great was famous because he was the first Christian emperor of Rome. It was he who influenced the change in faith from the old gods to Christianity in Rome. The epithet "the Great" was added to his name by Christians because he had provided so much financial and imperial support for their faith. The pagans refused to use this epithet because it was he who began the long persecution of the pagan religion. Some years after the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, Constantine declared that he had seen a sign in the sky, assuring him of victory under the Christian God. The Christian historian, Eusebius, recorded his assertion to this effect nearly a quarter of a century later, but even he believed that the emperor was not altogether telling the truth about his vision.

A:Evolution was already becoming established as a hypothesis when Charles Darwin was a young man. The captain of the Beaglehoped that by having a naturalist on board, he might obtain geological evidence to refute the theories that were already beginning to shock Christian believers in Europe. Charles Darwin, having begun to study for the priesthood, seemed to be a sound choice in this endeavour but, as it turned out, Darwin was too inquisitive and too rational a person. Using the data collected on this voyage and many years of painstaking study, he proposed the Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection. The potential impact on Christian churches is demonstrated by the wife of the Bishop of Worcester, "Descended from the apes! My dear, let us hope that it is not true, but if it is, let us pray that it will not become generally known." The theory did become generally known and did have an effect on the churches, no more so than in the United States. It took more than a hundred years before major Christian denominations began to accept the reality of evolution and explain how Christian belief could coexist with evolutionary theory.
This was Rome whose Government was mercilessly killing the followers of Jesus at one time and about a century after it. If anyone who was not a christian in Rome was considered to be an "evil". It bettered the condition of people in Rome. Gladiators were banned after it. Fighting with animals was also banned and many other reforms took place.

One potential beneficial effect of the German occupation of certain countries during World War II was the modernization and industrialization that took place in those regions. Germany's technological advancements and infrastructure projects may have contributed to economic development in some occupied territories.

After witnessing an image of the crucified Jesus Christ in the sky, at least according to later Christian propaganda, Emperor Constantine (who was Emperor of only one quarter of the then Roman Empire) proceeded to win the battle for Rome by defeating Emperor Maxentius in 312 C.E. It is as true, and rather more likely, that Constantine witnessed a falling meteorite which he was then told was a sign from the Christian God. Too, he may have come across a weather phenomenon know as the 'halo effect' by which the sun is reflected off freezing water in the sky to peculiar effect when viewed from the ground. It should be noted that at this time that the heavily outnumbered Constantine was desperate for any sign that would confirm his faltering, virginal faith. Constantine, Roman emperor from 306 AD to 337 AD, converted Christianity from a persecuted cult to a religion--one among many, however-- that was to be recognized throughout the Empire. In 312 AD, the emperor decreed that, from that time forth, the persecution of Christianity was to end. It is worth noting however, that Costantine was sufficiently canny to leave the heads of 'pagan' Roman gods on the coins, did not convert all the temples to churches, and did not himself get baptised until the hour of his death.
