Constantine 'opened the door/laying the foundation' for..
- The concept/idea of 'State Church.'
- Theodosius I made Christianity..the state religion of
the Roman Empire.

The concept of 'State Church' influenced Protestantism..in Christian history.

A far cry from the "eklesia" or "body of believers" as the first century church was.

Yes I agree, the opinion is to reveal the true foundation of Roman Catholicism, it was a means of government control at it's time, and this religious control and State Church has spread throughout the world

Another prime example is 1929 and fascist Italian dictator Mussolini giving "Vatican City" it's own national status and protections

Yes this has been used to shelter Roman Catholic Criminals from around the globe, Boston's Cardinal (Bernard Francis Law) being one, who fled from Boston in Dec 2002 to "Vatican City" having 400+ counts of child molestation and under US Grand Jury indictment, he was sheltered from extradition by Pope John Paul II

I don't know. I think modern 501c3 churches bend the knee every bit as much as the church did during Constantine's reign. Probably more. Back then you had the church exerting influence on the government. I don't see churches putting much of any pressure on the government now. They're all too scared to lose their tax free status.

"Freedom of religion" is a farce. You will never have a peaceful society with Catholics, Protestants, jews, muslims, satanists, atheists, hindu's all living together. Gotta decide which you want to have and get rid of all the others. Otherwise it's gonna constantly be some level of civil war. But that was probably the plan from the start. It's good to have people fighting amongst one another if you want to have an excuse to exert more and more controls.

Where's our precious 501c3's in all this? They're all too busy talking about how we all need to be sure to pay our taxes, love gays, and obey the authoritah's. Oh yeah...they also all love talking about how we need to go fight for israel. Any church that shut down for corona probably needed to die anyway. Good riddance. You've probably got a better chance of dying from corona than finding a decent church.

It was king Pepin who have large portions of Italy to the then bishop of Rome and this was the begining of the rise to power for the catholic church, and the rise of the papacy.

Making the jump from Constantine to vatican is the same as making the jump from Alfred the great to American in crisis today.
Shortly after Constantine died Under Theodosius, christianity became the roman state church however under Romulous Rome fell to Germanic kings who were Arian in theology, and hostile toward Catholicism. Then Rome fell to the Lombards, who were defeated by a Frankish King named Pepin. It was king Pepin who have large portions of Italy to the then bishop of Rome and this was the begining of the rise to power for the catholic church, and the rise of the papacy.

While the church of Rome dominated Western Europe, the Orthodox Church dominated Eastern Europe, and the Byzantine empire was probably even more powerful than the Holy Roman Empire. And church and state were inseparable on both sides. But we need to balance the positive with the negatives. Europe as a whole became a Christian continent in that Christian values were recognized as true. The negatives were the use of state power to persecute dissenters. So when the Reformers came on the scene, they were unable (or unwilling) to totally separate themselves from the state either.

In the Balkans, the conflict between Catholics and Orthodox became very serious and hundreds of thousands (perhaps more) died in the conflicts between the Serbs and the Croats. That animosity will probably never disappear. Add to that the Muslim populations of the Balkans, and you have a real problem.

Constantine built the original St. Peter's Basilica, And Also Built The "Lateran patriarchate" where the Popes have resided.

Constantine is the foundation and father of Roman Catholicism the State Church, a (Fact)

Wikipedia: St. Peter's Basilica
Old St. Peter's Basilica was the 4th-century church begun by the Emperor Constantine the Great between 319 and 333 AD.[26] It was of typical basilical form, a wide nave and two aisles on each side and an apsidal end, with the addition of a transept or bema, giving the building the shape of a tau cross. It was over 103.6 metres (340 ft) long, and the entrance was preceded by a large colonnaded atrium. This church had been built over the small shrine believed to mark the burial place of St. Peter, though the tomb was "smashed" in 846 AD.[27] It contained a very large number of burials and memorials, including those of most of the popes from St. Peter to the 15th century. Like all of the earliest churches in Rome, both this church and its successor had the entrance to the east and the apse at the west end of the building.[28] Since the construction of the current basilica, the name Old St. Peter's Basilica has been used for its predecessor to distinguish the two buildings.

Wikipedia: Lateran Palace
The Domus Laterani came into the possession of the emperor when Constantine I married his second wife Fausta, sister of Maxentius. Around 312, Constantine had razed the imperial horse-guards barracks adjoining the palace, which was known as Domus Faustae or "House of Fausta" by this time; the equites singulares Augusti had supported Maxentius against Constantine. He commissioned the construction of the Basilica di San Giovanni in Laterano on the site.[2] The Domus was eventually given to the Bishop of Rome by Constantine.

As Byzantium grew less able to help prevent Lombard incursions, the papacy became more independent of the Empire. Prior to the early eighth century, the residence of the bishops of Rome was not called a palace, but rather the "Lateran patriarchate".[3] The incentive to refurbish the Lateran patriarchate as a true palace was to create an imperial residence from which the pope could exercise not only spiritual but also temporal authority.

There were "Many" Christian's that existed in Europe outside of the Roman Catholic or Orthodox churches that were persecuted by both

Wikipedia is your response?
I gave you facts, you give wikipedia. Lol.

Its a fact Constatine built the Roman Catholic St. Peter's Basilica starting in 319AD, that stood for 1300+ years

It's a fact that Constantine gave the Latern Palace to the Popes for their residence

Please correct myself and Wikipediaif the claims are false

How could you claim that Constantine had no relevance in Roman Catholicism's foundation, as he provided the St. Peter's Basilica, the Lateran Palace as the Pope's residence, and he Called the 1st Nicean Council?

Please correct me if myself and Wikipedia is wrong?

Perhaps you would desire a quote from the Roman Catholic Encyclopedia?

Yes and this power and division came much later than Constantine. The great schism between the eastern Orthodox and the Roman church began in 1050-ish. Christianity was pretty well a scattered but unified-ish group in the late 300s.
It was after Pepin gave land and power to the bishop of rome in the after 755 that political power became part of the church.

I absolutely can't not prove this...
It's just a hunch...
But I suspect this "history" has been overblown.
Why??

What does this "information" produce? It produces animosity between Catholics and Protestants.
Who benefits from the two major sects of Christianity fighting one another? Satan.
Who is the "prince of this world"? Satan.

I mean, maybe that's really the way it happened. But I it sure is convenient for satanic purposes.
