What I do know - Way back in the day the Romans were killing off Christians left and right. . .then one day Constantine had a 'vision', didn't heed the warnings in the Gospel and Epistles to make sure such things are from God or not, which in turn caused Christians to literally flee to the hills.
Think about that - Christians back then weren't afraid of dying and it was Constantine's vision, words, and actions after the event that caused Christians to flee!
