Not just the deterioration of the idea of an emperors job..either, a deterioration in the quality of the people filling the boots, lol. Julian saw christianity as a parasite feeding on the corpse of rome. It was the degraded state of roman institutions that he saw as the culprit in it's demise. To that end, he booted christianity out of schools, took away their tax exemptions, and confiscated church lands...returning them to the public or to their original owners. While he was at it he booted do-nothing bishops in the bureaucracy.
