    Not compelling in the least. Here's my latest thinking.

    1. Jesus is a false prophet.
    2. Christianity benefited from political clout (Constantine).
    3. Our religious thought is evolving.
    4. Our knowledge is growing.
    5. More and more things that used to be ascribed to God and demons
        are being ascribed to science and physical laws.
    6. well, that's it for the purposes of this list (glad I joined an
        agnostic list also :-)

    BTW, you've selected weak evidence over strong. I can't see how that
    will sustain you :-(
