Freedom of religion always existed in the Roman Empire. The Romans respected and tolerate the religions and customs of the conquered peoples and even allowed them to use their customary laws at the local level. There were changes of policies with regard to Christianity from toleration to persecution and viceversa. However, Christianity was never actually banned.

Religious toleration in Quaker-dominated Pennsylvania fostered a diverse and pluralistic society, attracting various religious groups seeking refuge from persecution. This environment encouraged peaceful coexistence and collaboration among different communities, contributing to a culture of mutual respect and dialogue.
