When did Greece stop believing in the Ancient Greek pantheon?

Greek mythology weakened quite strongly in adherence against Christianity throughout the 300s C.E., especially after Emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire (of which Greece was a part).


When did the spread of Christianity come to a stop?

It hasn't. What began with just a handful of people in a backwater of the Roman empire, gradually spread across the empire over the next three centuries until Constantine decreed that Rome should become Christian in the fourth Century. Since then the spread of Christianity has continued unabated for the last 1700 years. Whilst in the Western World Christianity has been established for centuries, in the Far East is is continuing to spread. In China, for example, there are now an estimated 100 million Christians despite persecution there, an astronomic growth since an estimation of just 5000 Christians in the country in the 1970s. In South Korea the Christian Church has spread exponentially and is still growing - some churches exceed 10,000 in their congregations. In fact, the Yoido Full Gospel Church there has a congregation that now exceeds 800,000 members whch meets, in several sittings, in a vast hall in Seoul.

Why did the Romans try to stop the spread of Christianity?

The Romans did not try to stop the spread of Christianity. There were alternations between periods of toleration and periods of persecution. Some Roman emperors thought that Christianity was a threat to the Roman state because many bureaucrats and soldiers converted to Christianity. The Romans saw their state as being interlinked with Roman Religion. The persecutions were aimed mainly at the civil service and the Christian clergy, rather than Christianity as such. The last and worse persecution, the Great Persecution, failed because it was difficult to implement, because of the resistance of the Christians and because it undermined the stability of the empire. After that, the emperors endorsed Christianity, favored it over other religions and promoted it. Eventually, Christianity became the state religion of the empire. With imperial support, the spread of Christianity accelerated.
