>>i would say 1,500 years of unanimous belief makes for a “strong consensus” :)<<

I wouldn’t, since most of the members of that church could not read and were similar in their beliefs to modern Muslims are in theirs. Heck, the pictures in the leaded glass of the Catholic churches are from the day when they were basically “the bible in comics” for the masses. It does not mean there were not many devout Catholics, but I believe much of what they believed was baloney foisted upon them by flawed men, some merely misguided and others corrupt in their motives.

And Catholicism is not the only “ancient” Christian church.

What is this slur about? Never mind, don't elaborate.

The condescension drips from your fingers. I guess it has to, when your model of Christianity is completely incompatible with the reality of human existence for most of history.

Yes, sneer at the illiterate and the tools used to catechize them.
