For People Who Think There Was No Historical Jesus
RE: For People Who Think There Was No Historical Jesus
(February 21, 2013 at 7:27 pm)Confused Ape Wrote: Christianity Becomes The State Religion

Quote:Theodosius promoted Nicene Trinitarian Christianity within the Empire. On 27 February 380, he declared the "Catholic Church" the only legitimate Imperial religion, ending official state support for the traditional pagan religions and officially ending pagan sacrifice and religious rituals.[12][13]

Rome, the great military power, could now become Rome, the great military religious power and it did.

Aha! But they kept (or added) all of the pagan rituals, rites and dieties (saints, angels, etc...).
