The Realist groans: "All life is mud ans slime!"
Men lie and steal and shed each other's blood;

A curse is no more real than a song;
Among realities we need but choose.

But when Constantine himself converted to Christianity, that's when the Church was corrupted and perverted by the state. Williams explains that under Constantine, "the gardens of Christ's churches turned into the wildernesss of national religion, and the world (under Constantine's dominion) to the most unchristian Christendom." Legalizing, legitimizing the Church turned Christianity into just another branch of government enforced by "the sword of civil power," i.e., through state-sponsored violence.— Sarah Vowell
