    You need to specify specific places and times as there is no one answer. Start by searching for everything you have about Roman religion. This is the first page of results of the beta search for Roman religion and power structures ... one of many searches I would try:

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
