As the Pax Romana crumbled, the Roman Empire faced increasing political instability, social unrest, and economic challenges, leading to a search for scapegoats. Christians, who refused to worship the traditional Roman gods and participate in state rituals, were seen as a threat to the unity and stability of the empire. Additionally, the rise of new religious movements often led to a backlash against minority faiths, resulting in heightened persecution of Christians as they were blamed for various societal problems. Thus, their distinct beliefs and practices made them targets during a time of turmoil.

What do christians think about Henry VIII Wives?
I don't think most Christians think of the wives very often. They probably think that the wives were very shamefully treated by Henry, but that they themselves did little or no wrong. Henry himself - that's a different matter. Most Christians don't have a very high opinion of him and his series of marriages.!

What did Romans think about the persecution of Christians?
There is no real evidence of the Romans persecuting Christians before at least 97 CE, and only sporadic periods of persecution even after that. A Christian tradition holds that Nero persecuted the Christians living in Rome because he blamed them for the Great Fire, but historians have been unable to find any evidence of such persecution or even a reason for Nero to want to blame them unjustly. If the story of the martyrdom of Stephen is based on fact, then that instance involved Jews, not Romans.When it occurred, persecution was usually because Christians refused to worship the gods, thereby risking divine wrath. Some Romans felt that the gods could be appeased by punishing Christians who overtly refused to worship them. Sometimes emperors supported one side or the other for political reasons.From the late fourth century onwards, Christianity had become the official religion of Rome and was in a position to persecute pagans and Mithraists. It seems that persecution does not choose its victims - whichever religion is more powerful at the time persecutes the less powerful.

What are some examples of persecution today?
First, we should define "Christian Persecution". What is happening in the United States, Canada, and Europe, where Christians do not get their way politically in every case, e.g. abortion is legal, divorce is legal, more people are leaving Christianity, etc. is NOT persecution. Persecution is when the lives or livelihoods of people are severely threatened or such people face legal hardships because they are Christians. There is persecution of Christians in North Korea, persecution specifically of Catholics in China, and persecution of Christians in general throughout the Islamic World, but especially in Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.P.S. It is not happening "worldwide".
