The Romans did not actually ban Christianity. Rather its actions were like that of the Soviet Union, which restricted its actions/officially persecuted it. It actually thrived under Diocletian’s restoration of order. Then WHAM, the Great Persecution, which came close to destroying the Church in the eastern part of the Empire.
