Just curious, what do you think is so bad about Theodosius that he would be even behind those guys?
Theodosius prohibited traditional Roman and Hellenistic religion, as well as Arian Christianity. He outlawed Polytheistic religious practices. Theodosius ended the Olympic Games, one of many Polytheistic festivals. He also permitted the massacre of Roman citizens by the Gothic mercenary garrison of Thessalonika, in 390 CE. Imposing a single religion on a large and diverse population always leads to civil unrest.
