What religion was Benjamin Franklin?
Benjamin Franklin was a Christian, born into the Protestant faith. But from a very young age, he was a skeptic and expressed his doubts about Christianity. He seems to have been a Deist-- he definitely believed in God, and he also believed in prayer; but did not want to be restricted by the rules and rituals of any one organized faith. While he never rejected Christianity, his own writings indicate that he was not a regular church-goer and Christian practice did not seem to be a central part of his life.

Was the designation of Christianity as the official religion more advantageous for the Christian church or for the Roman Empire?
The designation in 380 of Christianity as the official religion with the Edict of Thessalonica was advantageous to mainstream Christianity and advantageous to the dissident Christian doctrines. With regard to the empire, it was not a matter of advantage. The Edict of Thessalonica had to do with the religious convictions of the co-emperors Gratian and Theodosius I. They were supporters of mainstream Christianity and worried about the popularity of dissident Christian doctrines, particularity that of Arian Christianity. The target of the edict was these dissident doctrines. It made mainstream Christianity the sole legitimate religion of the empire and banned the dissident Christian doctrines, which were branded as heretical. Theodosius immediately begun to persecute them, particularly the popular Arians. Mainstream Christianity was the Catholic Church. At that time it was not like today's Catholic Church. It was the combined name of the two churches which subscribed to the Nicene Creed (the doctrine of the trinity). It was composed of the Greek, or Eastern, Church and the Latin, or Western Church. The former was the main form of Christianity in the eastern part of the empire and the latter was the main form in the western part. Later they came to be called Orthodox and Catholic respectively. The dissident Christian doctrines were non-trinitarian; i.e., they rejected the doctrine of the trinity. Their persecution led to their disappearance. Latin and Greek Christianity became the only forms of Christianity in the empire Theodosius also introduced laws which restricted pagan practices which had not been targeted by anti-pagans laws of the previous emperors. The Roman religion became impossible to practice. Theodosius promoted the persecution of paganism and condoned the destruction of pagan temples. and shrines by zealous followers and monks. This also contributed to the mentioned Christian churches becoming dominant.
