One of the first effects of the new change was after the persecution of the Donatists. It was a heresy to articulate Donald Bishop of Carthage, he was able to create a church with more than 300 bishops in North Africa. After 500 years Carthage against Rome because of religion.
Donatism took on a religious-agriculture policies, and was supported by settlers and small land owners dell'esosità tired of taxes. Preached it as belonging to Christianity was not because of salvation, but its effectiveness was derived from the dignity and the honesty of the clergy. Donatism claimed as priests to administer sacraments and presiding at services, should have dignity and honesty so striking in the heart of Christianity, that had just taken over the task of conditioning the people to exploitation and now they wanted to impose rules on nomenclature management. That's why the new Roman Christianity had to resort to persecution and Donato died in exile in Gaul. This shows the greatness of the new management policy of Christianity was not killed for not making it a martyr. Constantine
inserted the new Christian Church in the political-administrative structure of the empire, attributed criminal and civil jurisdiction to the bishops.
For example, St. Augustine, a Roman noble family educated in Rome, was sent as governor in northern Italy. In 374 he took steps to quell the riots broke out in Milan for the succession of Bishop Ausenzio filoariano. St. Augustine's work was appreciated and the impetus behind popular it was decided to appoint bishops, he accepted the job after being named because it was not a Christian. In the new office was able to defeat the Arian heresy in northern Italy and sentenced the danger of the Donatists.
Some priests of the god Mithras did not accept the merger with Christianity, in 377 began the persecution against them and, by the Christian prefect of Rome, the last temple was destroyed mitreo.
There was still some group professed polytheism, but later, in the Second Council of Nicaea recognized the legitimacy of the veneration of images, with ancient Hebrew and proto dictates, polytheism and stopped.
Constantine's intuition about the prospects of mastery over people through Christianity was gaining ground. Donatism was an example of how Carthage was trying to redeem himself after centuries working the monotheistic religion, the mistake of this movement was to remain in the system, it was easy, through the assembly of the councils, order Donato. He thought that, being the only God, you could create other faiths, then we must stay in the system and could not be saved. This proved not to be able to break the mold.
The system was only as the God, you could create an alternative to central power to handle the new monotheistic religion. A move away from this religion Donato sorry forgiveness preachers including the abuse of power. The
marchingenio was perfect, if you used the advocate monotheism of Christianity and forgiveness needed to pass the patent system was in the hands of Rome, Christianity, thanks to this continued to operate, the empire survived by facilitating trade undertaken in the vast lands of the Mediterranean gravitating away even though hundreds of miles offshore. The Eternal City
allowing these commercial operations and systems in ways that drew several enormous wealth.
is said to be the Semites of the best merchants, at their beginning had invaded the land of Sumer and from them learned the art of business. The Sumerians were the first in the world to make up their bills and bills of debt as reported by their famous clay tablets
There was a Semite (Muhammad), he was a young man of confidence of a wealthy Jewish widow because it had inherited from her husband as a prosperous trade. Sposata la vedova, Maometto, si dedicò al commercio e fu artefice di una grande rivoluzione.
Egli fece numerosi viaggi commerciali, grazie ai quali venne in contatto col Cristianesimo e comprese come, attraverso una religione, Roma continuava a condizionare il mondo senza avere eserciti o terre occupate. Tutti coloro che creavano o governavano regni o domini, ad un certo punto, dovevano fare i conti con il brevetto romano : il Cristianesimo.
L’arte del buon governo si poteva svolgere meglio se il popolo da sfruttare abbracciava il Cristianesimo. Maometto capì l’importanza del monoteismo, questo in mano agli ebrei non aveva dato ottimi risultati invece, in mano a Roma, aveva risolto molti problemi. Maometto voleva distaccarsi dal power held by the peoples living north of the Mediterranean, retain monotheism but do not let it manage others. Through experience teopatiche, began his public apostolate.
He saw how the Christian religion was harmful to the people who profess it, and then also to be more widely accepted by the Semitic peoples preached a less submissive behavior than that of the Gospel. While the book has been written of Christianity by the followers of Jesus, the holy book of Islam was written directly on the instructions of Muhammad, he for the triumph of his creed, had to fight, he was a contractor and as such will shoulder the task of spreading his belief.
But Jesus was an advocate of a culture exposed and not imposed.
The followers of Jesus, taking advantage of the oral tradition, could sublimate this wonderful preaching. Muhammad had understood: the passivity of Christianity would have been detrimental to the people. The violence of the Bible, though weakened, is in the Koran.
The merit of Mohammed was to establish the end of polytheism, which is not optimal for the conduct of nations, proved to be able to retain monotheism also changing its confessional formula. The concept is: God is one, to do better to accept you just adapt to the religion and customs of peoples.
Islam had a great development, especially in North Africa, in fact, the ferment of posted peoples of the southern Mediterranean by Roman power had already presented with Donatism, this confession with the advent of Islam disappeared completely in 722.
The Quran is the closest to the Bible to give the people an opening to defend his people from abuse.
Christianity through honest transcription of the Gospels, those decrees not apocryphal, he continued to perform his duty to which Constantine had pulled out of the catacombs, was to continue to allow Rome to receive the fruits of labor of believers without any means violence to impose taxes.
Some rebelled, but always ended, however, touching upon religious beliefs or the priestly class, and came to an exemplary sentences. Later in the Middle Ages it was seen as the fires (in addition to being an alternate show the struggles in the Roman) was a cheap means of deterrence for the hotheads. Among the Christian people are asleep in their DNA, the concept of defense, to have everyone as a brother does not always fight for their dignity: The abuse was more space between the Christians, and in case of war, lack of backbone, gave rise to a massacre.
peoples of northern Europe were trained by people with a culture formed by the hard struggle against adverse environment. Their survival was tied to a strong fighting spirit. To take advantage of these peoples, Rome had Christianity also send each other. After several centuries, even they were part of the passive attitude of acceptance. This approach was not initially deleterious, leading to a reduced friction within communities and between nations, in the long run, however, led to the sloth in the defense of their culture is necessary for survival.
