Who cares? If Constantine or George Washington or Gandi existed 10,000 years ago it still would not make magic babies real, just like you don't assign lightening to Thor.
It is a very COMMON tactic for writers of holy writings after the fact, AFTER THE FACT, after the alleged magical claims, to incorporate real places and real people to give the fantastic claims false credibility.
Even si fi fans fall for this bullshit, when trying to assign credit for something.
Gene Roddenberry was a VERY REAL person, but he didn't invent shit. He got his motifs for his show off of prior si fi shows.
George Washington existed, and Constantine existed, but neither of them were talking to fictional sky heros anymore than you think King Tut was talking to the fictional sun God Ra. Tut was a real provable human, but that did not make the deities the Ancient Egyptians believed in real.
Not enough humans worldwide consider that this is it, that there is no sky wizard helping us, and that we invent those fictions as a way to cope with our own finite existence.
