Horus, there is one telling line in all of that.
One thing xtians love to harp about is that the mythical jesus theory was unknown in antiquity...I guess meaning that because ignorant goat-fuckers did not question something it must be "true." Anyway,
The French Revolution erupted in 1789 and while the revolutionaries were pissed at the nobility they were also pissed at the church which was seen as being just as much of a bunch of parasites. Thus the time line tells us that as soon as it was safe to begin questioning this holy horseshit people began doing so. Once the church lost the power to burn heretics at the stake it was all over for them.
