    What did Constantine actually do? The thread, not so? Well, he only put into civil law what had long been pagan religious superstition. Paul already encountered it, Gal.4:10. Justin was the first Christian who by adulteration of Mt.28:1, gave Sunday-observance a Christian disguise.

    Absolutely nothing? That would be my guess.

    I think that the Greek church would claim that Constantine extablished the Orthodox churches.

    What the Greek Church would claim could never be what Constantine actually did.
    Constantine was a heathen - by confession who claimed the right to rule the Church - he was the Emperor was he not?
