Sounds like a Dan Brown fanfic
I know it's not well written, but God as my witness, Dan Brown is like cotton candy for the brain and I feel no shame about loving his books.
If Paul Johnson's History of the Jews is to be believed, Judaism arose out of a fanatical cult that worshipped the sky-and-war god El, and all the monotheism stuff was a big retcon that evolved out of El insisting that he was the best and strongest god among many gods, not a sole god of everything.
Very true, there are other sources of the same ideas. It's even in the Bible: "You shall have no other gods before me", implying that El is the number 1 god.
Paul Johnson has gone out of fashion but his wide works have stood the test of time.
Fortunately for Charlemagne, calendars and reams of historical documents from Asia and the Americas refute the phantom time theory.

@dang why is this four day old post [1] suddenly resurrected as if I posted it today? This is the second or third time I've seen it happen.
Can you let people karma farm repeat posts without this nonsense?

That’s officially in my headcanon now.
