· Idea of being a chosen race was not acceptable.
· Only one religion is good
· Plato’s and Aristotle’s idea of man conflicted with the Christian one because it was to have complete intellectual being/Mau whereas the Christians were emphasizing on the moral man.
· Intellectual and aesthetic elements which were very important to Romans were not important to Christians – they were preparing for the ones to come
· Early Christians were opposed to some pagan practices practiced by the Romans e.g. gladiator shows (fights until one of them is killed) man + man or man + animal and divorce – easy for the Romans, infanticide by Romans
(child exposure).
