Uh… Christianity spread a lot nonviolently though? Also a lot violently, but there’s a reason Constantine (it was Constantine right?) converted and it’s not because he was threatened with violence.

It did at first, but like you said, Constantine was a huge shift.

Constantine ‘converted’ because his empire was crumbling militarily, and so he switched to using ‘religion’ instead of ‘statehood’ to protect the Roman Empire.
