Look how we incorporate pagan myth in our celebrations even at Easter , for Pagans knew alot about fellowship & love too and thats the truth . In the end it took one Roman emperor to "convert" which changed everything for that time and that conversion was a marked event /turning point in history .

But this conversion of Constantine wasn't because of some miracle of revelation , some supernatural vision or manifestation that was any real major proof of divinity . And that conversion was extremely crux to final acceptance throughout the Empire and one could suppose in that state of weakening it was probably only natural & far easier to gravitate towards monotheism when maintaining a dozen different temples to multiple dieties is an extremely taxing thing on any society . Especially one that's teetering over ...

We see this transition to monothesim a very expedient one following on the heels of those pagan religions that had preceded , they had already followed the humanizing dieties in their own images & Christianity only demonstrates this to the highest degree . Not god created man in his image , the other way around ....well throw in the holy spirit which represents our own deeper profound human "Nature" when those organs of the body are operating in some ideal harmonious ways , all is good & you're seeing things "just right in the light " !
