Answer
Brief Explanations:
To solve this, we analyze each option:
- Option A (Islam): Islam was founded in the 7th century (around 610 CE), so it couldn't gain support in the 300s CE.
- Option B (Hinduism): Hinduism has ancient roots in India and wasn't a "new" religion gaining support in the Roman Empire in the 300s CE.
- Option C (Greek Gods): The worship of Greek gods was traditional in the Roman world and not a "new" religion in the 300s CE.
- Option D (Christianity): By the 300s CE, Christianity, which had been growing, gained significant support in the Roman Empire (e.g., Emperor Constantine's support and the Edict of Milan).
