∙ 9y agoThe numbers of Christians grew quickly and a general dislike for Christians probably arose from their refusal to worship the gods or take part in sacrifice, which was expected of those living in the Roman Empire.

Why did the churches pose a problem to Hitler?
The morality (or lack of it) of Hitler's Nazi government was becoming more clear to several Church leaders in Germany by the late 1930's. Some leaders stood-up in opposition to Hitler's policies that sought to purge Jews & the disabled. They were imprisoned. Christian teachings were in contradiction to those ideologies expressed by Hitler and the Nazis. Hitler clearly understood that his views contradicted those of the Church, and sought to first corrupt, then remove the influences of Christianity from German culture & society. The German public was slow to recognize Hitler's goal to destroy the religion of Christianity within the Third Reich.

(verse 23).So, the challenge to Greek philosophy posed by Christianity is in their getting past their perceived "foolishness" of it.
