Answer:
D
Explanation:
You can use the process of elimination for this question. Choice A can be dismissed because, in order for a vow of poverty to devastate the Roman economy, the majority of people within that economy would have to abide by it. Furthermore, Christians are not expected to take a vow of poverty, only nuns and monks. Choice B can be eliminated because there is nothing about Christian scripture that was explicitly anti-Roman. Choice C can also be eliminated because, in order for Christian worship to disrupt family life, a majority of Romans would have to be Christian. Additionally, there is nothing about Christianity that would force practitioners to abandon or disrupt their families. As such, it must be Choice D. Additionally, it is based on a much more concrete foundation since the power of the Church did threaten the power of nation-states such as the Roman Empire.
