How were Christians treated under Nero's rule?

A. Christians could pray at Roman shrines.

B. Christians had limited religious freedom.

C. Christians were persecuted for their beliefs.

D. Christians received property that had been seized by the state.

The Roman religion included many major and minor gods headed by the sky god, Jupiter. In Roman belief, a sort of contract existed between the people and their gods. In exchange for the Romans practicing the required religious rituals, the gods would ensure prosperity, health, and military success.

Like the Romans, almost all the conquered peoples were polytheistic. They worshiped their own gods, who they thought protected them. Since they believed other peoples had their own gods, they found it relatively easy to take part in festivals celebrating Roman gods. It was simply a matter of paying respect to the Romans.
