Ultimately, the Christians may have disrupted the foundations of the Roman Empire; however their actions hardly destroyed the Romans as Edward Gibbons had implied. The empire was on the decline well before Christianity was becoming a dominant force. However, Edward Gibbons believed that Christianity had refuted the fact that Rome was founded by the gods, and would reign over the earth forever.
