Mark each statement if it was a source of conflict between christians and roman rulers during the third century a. d.

a. christians denied the existence of pagan roman gods and worshiped only one god.

b. the christians refused to follow diocletian's orders that all soldiers and administrators sacrifice to rome's traditional gods.

c. christians were a majority in rome.

I think the answer is letter A and B.

Although Romans have no real basis why they have killed many Christian but many Christians died during the rise of the Roman Empire, especially if they are found doing Christian rituals. Decius had issued a decree that allowed soldiers to kill civilians caught. Because of this Christians would hide to avoid assault and death.

the answer is solomon northrup. he was a free-born african american, abolitionist and professional violinist that was drugged, kidnapped and sold as slave in 1841 and remained in captivity until 1853 where he regained his freedom with the of the then-governor of new york, washington hunt. he wrote and published his memoirs "twelve years a slave" in 1853, and in this text, he tells the story of his escape thru one of louisiana's swamps (the great pacoudrie swamp) in which he ended up covered in green slime from crossing the surface of the dead water.
