The approval of Christianity by Constantine was the initial nail in the coffin of the Roman Empire....
A lot of people would scoff at that, but the first years after he converted, Constantine spent lots of money on many campaigns in war and "cultural dispertion" of the new official religion...usurped many old traditions and ways and the empire eventually weakened until it's collapse since the far reaching provinces couldn't maintain control in the pagan populations.

Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
