Ya know....I'm gonna agree with some of what you say and piss off a lot of people in the process......(bonus in my book)......
Taking the high ground with a Harry Potter book? Yep...after the Niecine council, it became a book of half-truths and myths. Nothing like controlling the masses with religion like you said.
However......
There is evidence of a church (news story was carried on CNN), that was discovered. It's date is approx. 100 years after the Crucifixion, it was DEFINITELY a Christian church, and they even found a coin with the likeness and name of Jesus upon it. I kinda doubt that Constantine was the one that created Christianity. Matter of fact, I view that just like I do all the rest of Rome........
Nothing but a bunch of rip-off artists........
OF course there was christianity before Emperor Constantine... however it would have died out with hundreds of other similar cults.... However Constantine chose that one to control the peasants.
And here endeth the theology lesson.
