How do you think the spread of christianity s' will effect the roman empire?
At first Christianity was persecuted. Initially it was used as a scapegoat, later it was seen as a threat to the Roman state because Roman religious practices were seen as part of the foundation of the state. The persecutions were stopped and Christianity became tolerated because the last persecution had led to widespread unrest as the majority of people had become Christians. This restored political stability and gave the empire a greater sense of unity. Conflicts between Christians also developed. Mainstream Christianity, Latin (western) and Greek (eastern) Christianity (later they came to be called Catholic and Orthodox) shared the Nicaean interpretation of the trinity and were opposed to alternative interpretations and other sects of Christianity. Mainstream Christianity was made state religion and the other Christian sects were banned. Tis led to conflict between mainstream Christianity and the biggest of the banned sects Arian Christianity, which was popular around the empire. Christianity became part of the identity of the empire.
What was probably the greatest leacy of Rome?
The greatest Roman legacy is Christianity. It originated from Judea, which was part of the Roman Empire and spread around this empire. It developed into two mainstream branches: Latin/Western Christianity and Greek/Eastern Christianity. The former was the main form of Christianity in the western part of the Roman Empire and the latter was the main form of Christianity in the eastern part. Later they came to be called Catholic and Orthodox respectively. The emperor Constantine the Great supported Christianity and convoked the ecumenical council of Nicaea in 325. This was the first attempt to attain consensus among Christians through an assembly of clergy from all the Christian doctrines. It established the Nicene Creed, which was the creed of mainstream Christianity (Latin and Greek Christianity). However, it did not end the bitter conflict between mainstream Christianity and dissident Christian doctrines. All the emperors of the Later Roman Empire after Constantine but one were Christians. In 380 the co-emperors Gratian and Theodosius the Great issued the edict of Thessalonica, which made mainstream Christianity the sole religion of the empire and banned dissident Christian doctrines, branding then as heretic. Theodosius persecuted the dissident doctrines, particularly Arian Christianity, which was popular around the empire. He also persecuted pagan religions. The actions of these Christian emperors established Latin and Greek Christianity as the religion of the empire. Later they spread to the rest of Europe.
