Answer 1

To answer you question. When Roman guards caught people praying to a different god they were punished by either death on the cross ,(like Jesus only Jesus did nothing wrong) fed to the lions, or most likely became a prisoner in the King of that time's castle. Does that answer the first one for you or do you want it more specific?
