Christianity

So over time, Rome came into a time when Christianity was being spread. This was a time of Jews, and Jesus. Jesus being around at this time is significant information. He is the head of one of the most popular religions in modern day. Jesus had spread radical news including that he was the Messiah. He was crucified by the Romans. After his death, his apostles (meaning messengers  spread his word through-out the world. Paul, one of the specific apostles of Jesus, really understood the word and helped to settle qualms about the word being spread. Over time there was an acquired group of followers. These followers helped to add dimension to the beliefs and the religion was able to grow and evolve. Paul was beheaded in 60 A.D. because he was Jewish and stirring up conflict among the Empire. Jesus' temple was destroyed ten years later. The followers thought this was a sign of God ditching them. In the end, Paul helped the Catholic Church to develop a lot and instill a faith in people.
