It’s 2026, and somehow the "Conflict Thesis", the idea that the Church and Science are locked in a cage match to the death, still has better PR than reality. It’s lazy. It’s historically illiterate.

7 Mistakes You’re Making with Catholic History (and Why Constantine Didn’t Actually Invent the Church)

"Constantine invented the Catholic Church." It’s the ultimate "mic-drop" for people who haven't opened a history book since high school.
