Question

Source: From a letter written by Pliny the Younger, a Roman judge, c. 112 C.E. Background: Pliny served as judge at trials of many of those accused of disrespecting Roman beliefs. “Here is the procedure I have followed in the case of those brought before me on account of being Christians. I asked them whether they were Christians. If they confess to it, then I ask them a second and third time, while threatening punishment. If they persist, I order them to be led away [to execution]. For whether there be anything at all they should admit to [in the way of a crime], I have no doubt that at least stubbornness and inflexible obstinacy ought to be punished.” What is the author's purpose for writing this letter? Question 1 options: to persuade Romans to become Christians to inform Roman authorities that, in the future, Christianity would be considered illegal to encourage Jewish and Christian communities to invest in Roman government to describe how Rome would become more inclusive of all faiths and beliefs
