Did you turn on auto-allow people you've approved before? That's what I have and I consider it to be the best compromise. Wow, I noticed my comment magically appeared.

Early Romans were very tolerant of the religions they found and people were pretty much free to practice as they wished. Mid-Romans feared the Christians as a destabilizing force since they did not observe the veneration of the Emperor. It was considered a form of treason. Also they made a great scape-goat like the Jews in 1930s/40s Germany. Late Romans were officially Christian after Constantine, so it was all good.
