Making "Christianity" Mandatory

The Legal Enforcement of Roman Imperial Paganism
🚨 380-406 AD
How the Roman Empire systematically transformed and mandated a hybrid religious system, effectively criminalizing the original Hebrew Way while forcing participation in imperial paganism with Christian names.

The Legal Foundation: 380-406 AD

February 27, 380 AD - Edict of Thessalonica: The Foundational Decree
It is our will that all the peoples who are ruled by the administration of our clemency shall practice that religion which the divine Peter the Apostle transmitted to the Romans... We command that those persons who follow this rule shall embrace the name of Catholic Christians. The rest, however, whom We adjudge demented and insane, shall sustain the infamy of heretical dogmas, their meeting places shall not receive the name of churches, and they shall be smitten first by divine vengeance and secondly by the retribution of Our own initiative.
🚨 Translation:
"Catholic Christianity" is now mandatory. Anyone practicing anything else is legally insane and will be persecuted by imperial force.

What "Catholic Christianity" Actually Meant

✅ Required Practices
  • Sunday worship (solar worship day) - attendance monitored
  • Christmas celebration (December 25 Sol Invictus festival) - participation mandated
  • Easter observance (spring fertility goddess ritual) - community involvement required
  • Trinity doctrine acceptance (Greek philosophical three-person godhead) - verbal confession demanded
  • Mary veneration (goddess worship) - prayers and devotion expected
  • Church hierarchy submission (imperial authority) - obedience to bishops required
❌ Forbidden Practices
  • Saturday Sabbath observance - criminal offense
  • Biblical festivals (Passover, Pentecost, Tabernacles) - illegal gatherings
  • YHWH name usage - "Jewish contamination"
  • Torah study or observance - heretical activity
  • Independent religious assembly - unlawful congregation
  • Hebrew calendar following - rejection of imperial authority
