Best Answer

The Romans adopted Christianity from the Jews. Up until the time of the emperor Domitian, Christianity was considered a Jewish sect. When Domitian tried to impose a tax on the Jews which included Christians, the Christians balked and proved that they were not a Jewish sect, but a distinct religion. (This didn't stop Domitian from persecuting them though)
