One minor correction: at that time there was no Catholic or Orthodox or Protestant - just Christians and heretics.

True. But you assume Constantine was a saint, because the Catholic church evenutally designated him as one and/or because he was baptized and/or because he declared Christianity the state religion.

I understand he allowed and protected worshippers of other religions than Christianity, just not witches and spiritists. So he did practice some religious tolerance.
