-This article gives a historical overview of Christian positions on [[Persecution of Christians]] and the [[History of persecutions by Christians]], and more generically on [[religious persecution]] and [[religious toleration|toleration]]. Christian theologians like [[Augustine of Hippo]] and [[Thomas Aquinas]] had legitimized religious persecution to various extents and, during the [[Late Antiquity]] and the [[Middle Ages]], Christians considered [[Christian heresy|heresy]] and [[Dissenter|dissent]] to be punishable offences. However, [[Early modern Europe]] witnessed the turning point in the '''Christian debate on persecution and toleration'''. Christian writers like [[John Milton]] and [[John Locke]] argued for limited religious toleration, and later authors like [[Thomas Jefferson]] developed the concept of [[religious freedom]]. +'''Santería''' is a [[Syncretism|syncretic religion]] of [[West African]] and Caribbean origin influenced by Roman Catholic Christianity, also known as '''Regla de Ocha''', '''La Regla Lucumi''', or '''Lukumi'''.
