The division between pagan Romans and Christian Romans during the time of the Roman Empire lead to many Christian Roman's executions. Tried for cannibalism, not worshipping the emperor, practicing secret rituals, not worshipping Roman gods, and not sacrificing to the Roman gods, thousands of Christians were burned at the stake, eaten by lions, or killed in public executions by various means.
