"As reported by Ananova, an asteroid which exploded
like a nuclear bomb may have converted the Roman
emperor Constantine to Christianity, assuring that
religion a prominent subsequent place in human
history. Accounts from the 4th century describe how
barbarians stood at the gates of the Roman empire
while a Christian movement threatened its
stability from within. It is said the emperor saw
an amazing vision in the sky, converted to
Christianity on the spot, and led his army to
victory under the sign of the cross."

'Asteroid impact could have prompted Constantine's
conversion'
