      That kind of makes more sense in the present moment in the US, when so much of history is the site of intense cultural fighting. Like, people are still fighting about Aristotle.

      I'm for anyone who overshadows Plato. I guess the more direct analogy here might be like, an American anti-clerical faction who gets really into Pontius Pilate.

      Well, who gets really into Julian the Apostate, like when Gore Vidal wrote his book about him (Pontius Pilate isn't really important outside of the Christians' own stories about him, which tend to end with him becoming a Christian)

      Ok, fair. And there is a pretty broad "Rome fell because it became Christian" take out there in Western historiography, usually lauding the pagans.

      Yeah it's funny because we kind of associate being really into Roman paganism with witchy New Age feminism etc. today but that's a hugely whitewashed image of what it was actually like and what people nostalgic for it historically were like

      I read a review of Vidal's Julian where the reviewer was like "Okay, but how would a modern world based on the pre-Christian Roman Empire be *better* than the one we have Like actually less sexist, racist, imperialist, in favor of slavery-based economics"

      "As obnoxious as I think the Jesus people are, the biggest difference I can see is we'd be cutting open a lot more animals to look at their entrails, instead of wastefully throwing the entrails away to make dog food"

      Honestly I would have traded Jesus in for Glycon There's, I think, something kind of endearing about worshipping a snake puppet
