Abstract

"Goodness is the only investment that never fails," once penned poet Henry David Thoreau. Such was a belief of the earliest followers of christianity, most of whom were disrespected lower-class citizens of the Roman Empire. christians proclaimed the existence of utopian life after death attainable through an altruistic approach to life on earth. Conversely, during the same period of time that christianity was birthed, Roman citizens practicing their pagan religion and its various forms believed that life on earth was far more appealing than what would come after death and their actions imitated this philosophy
