Prior to Christianity the Roman Empire had been relatively tolerent to people of different faiths and people were free to follow different religions.
When the Roman Empire adopted Christianity, Christian emperors persecuted all other faiths and tried to force everyone to be Christian under pain of death.
Literature written by pagans was burnt and destroyed which resulted in many works of literature, mathematics, philosophy, engineering being lost, and destroyed centuries of accumulated learning.
Be my guess. It pretty much destroys anything it comes in contact with.
