Christianity faced periods of persecution. However, it was later endorsed by the emperors, which supported it and persecuted paganism. Christianity became the state religion of the empire. In fact, Christianity developed in the Roman Empire. Two main forms developed: Latin or Western Christianity, which was the main form of Christianity in the western part of the empire and Greek or Eastern Christianity, which was the main form of Christianity in the eastern part of the empire. Later they came to be called Catholic and orthodox respectively. Romans society took on the creed and values of Christianity. Early Christianity took on Roman and Greek symbols, art and terminology.
When the Romans emerged as an empire, their religion was basically Greek Pagan, with the names changed (e.g. Zeus became Jupiter). When Rome moved from a republic to an empire, the requirement to worship Caesar became normal. Caesar was considered to be the son of a god and had to be worshipped accordingly. Finally, under Constantine, the Romans turned to Christianity. When the Roman Empire split (causing the Byzentine Empire and the Fall of Rome), the Christian chruch split to the Roman Catholic and the Orthodox churches. This is a pretty simplified answer.

The Romans adopted the main Greek schools of philosophy of their time: Stoicism and Epicureanism. With the advent of Christianity Neo-Platonism became popular.
Christianity is the contribution of the Romans to religion. Christianity spread around the Roman Empire and eventually became state religion. Both Catholic and Orthodox Christianity originally developed in the Roman Empire.
Before Constantinople became King, and made Christianity the main religion, Romans persecuted Christians, killing anyone who professed their faith who knows? we weren't around then!

Chistianity became popular because Rome adopted it.
they hated it and would do everything to stop itAt the dawn of Christianity after Jesus died, the Romans hated the Christians. They wanted all of the Christian to suffer and die for voicing their faith that was believed by the Romans to be false.
No, from the rule of the emperor Constantine, all Romans were Christians (Christianity became the state religion of the Roman Empire).
The Roman government feared the spread of Christianity because the Romans thought that if people who became Christians would stop worshipping the Roman gods. Early Christians also refused to pay homage to the Roman Emperor as divine, which was seen as challenging the Roman government.
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.
