The Romans allowed conquered people to worship their own gods as long as they worshipped the Graeco-Roman gods. The Jews were given a special exemption from this law against 'Atheism' because of the apparent antiquity of their religion. At first, the early Christians were treated as a sect of Judaism and were generally exempted from worship of the Roman gods. However, splits soon developed between Christianity and Judaism, so that Christianity could no longer be portrayed as a form of Judaism. Even then, we have early correspondence showing that some Roman leaders preferred not to know about the Christian stance unless they made a public point of offending the gods.
Umm. Christians?
Christians refused to worship Roman gods.
In the underground catacombs.
The Romans as they had all the power would throw the early christians to the lions to get rid of them as they thought they would become more powerful then them.
At various times, Romans embraced, ignored or slaughtered Jews and Christians. Nero was notorious for persecuting Christians. Under Hadrian, at least half a million Jews died and many more were enslaved.
Christians believed that Jesus was the king of the Jews; a treasonous thought. Christians denounced what they felt were the sinful ways of the Romans.

Umm. Christians?
The Romans hated everyone who would not worship their idols. Since Christians did not worship idols, [and since the Romans had Jesus (whom Christians regard as God in human form) crucified], the Romans sent many Christians into the arena to be killed for sport and entertainment.
The Romans told the Christians to worship their Ceasar, but the Chrisitans said that they should only worship God and Jesus......so that made the Romans really angry.

Yes, no matter whether you like or dislike Cleopatra, you have to say that she had courage. It took courage to commit suicide and even the Romans praised her courage in that matter.Yes, no matter whether you like or dislike Cleopatra, you have to say that she had courage.
