It was painfully obvious to educated Christians that the intellectual achievements of the "insane" pagans were vastly superior to their own. And so, in part from self-interest, in part from actual interest, Christianity started to absorb the literature of the "heathens" into itself.
Bishop Ambrose dressed Cicero's Stoic principles in Christian clothes; while Augustine adapted Roman oratory for Christian ends. The philosophical terms of the Greeks started to make their way into Christian philosophy.
Long-dead thinkers who happened to have any resemblances to Christianity in their writings found themselves adopted as unwitting ancestors in the tradition.
The whiff of Christianity hung around Plato? Ah, that was because he had visited Egypt and, while there, he had perhaps read a copy of the first five books of the Bible that Moses had, conveniently, left behind. He was, really, one of us. Socrates was a Christian before Christ.
