@judgedread A core defect of the religious type is the wanting to go back in time when time is constantly moving forward. It's like driving your car but staring in the rearview mirror. People back then died in their 40s and many of their children died before their 9th birthdays and their medicine and sanitation were shit and their day to day levels of general pain and discomfort were completely unbearable by 21st century standards but boy oh boy they went to church every Sunday!
No going back.
Compared to serfdom and the ever present threat of plagues, famine and death from the most trivial scratch becoming septic with no antibiotics modern problems are life in easy mode.
