In his own epistles, Paul never mentions having been called Saul, or having come from the city of Tarsus. In spite of this, it is certainly possible that he had been called Saul and that he was from Tarsus. However, we can never be certain whether the author of Acts of the Apostles, writing several decades after the death of Paul, was mistaken in those attributions. Some of the key passages regarding Saul in Acts of the Apostles have parallels to a Saulus whom Josephus mentions in Antiquities of the Jews, with which the author of Acts is known to have been familiar. Josephus even talked of a riot in Jerusalem, led by Saulus after the stoning of James. Although this Saulus could have inspired the author of Acts, he could not really have been the same person as Paul.

No religion helped to save Roman culture. One religion spread through the Roman Empire in its later days and transformed Roman culture: Christianity.
The Romans spread two different religions: pagan religion and Catholicism. In the early days of the Roman empire, they spread pagan Roman religion that is usually referred today as Roman Mythology. In 312 AD, Emperor Constantine converted to Catholicism, and made it the state religion in 313. After that point Catholicism was spread by the sword across the Roman Empire. This practice continued until the fall of the Roman Empire, and was picked up by most of the kingdoms that rose out of that collapse. The general way of spreading religion within the Roman Empire, and even more so by the governments that followed the fall of the Roman Empire, was if you did not convert to Catholicism, you died.
