The other day Marcus told me that there are Christians gathering at Titus’ house at night - apparently these godless deviants are having incestuous orgies. What’s next, child sacrifice? Cannibalism? Caesar really needs to put them in their place before they get out of hand.
Write a letter to your governor - when it happened in my province, he arrived post haste to set them straight. Some of the so-called Christians repudiated their false god, and the rest were imprisoned, and since then, all but three of them have also repudiated him. Those three speak of being ‘martyrs’, but the families of the rest are incredibly grateful to the governor for making them see sense, and have organised a sacrifice and a feast in celebration!
There’s a lot of Hellenes in the area who are aligned with them and they keep talking about “oily Josh and his 12 bottom homies.”
Absolutely gross. Real Roman men don’t receive love. They stick it right into the arse, the way the gods intended.
As if us Bacchus-worshipping, circular-family-tree-pantheon Romans have any right to criticize! Let them call Iupiter what they will and carry on with their strange practices. The mighty religion of Rome will surely outlast this puny upstart cult!
This is a cult of women and servants. They prey upon the unfortunate and promise rewards, but only after death.
Marginally increase the support to your client network such that no plebeian feels desperate enough to join them. Or, simply wait. The cult will die out like many others have.

Buy them a nice summer cottage in Pompeii and don’t go visit.
