I'm sure many of them were. On the one hand, it meant no more persecution; on the other, it meant political co-option. To most, the fear of death wins out.

It was not the end of persecution by a long shot. It begain an era of purges, forced conversions by threat of death and cultural destruction. Not that there were not already such eras however Chritianity now had its own era of inflicted pain and suffering.
