OK, I agree with that.

It's just funny that their understanding of Christianity is much more diverse (and removed from what's supposed to be true in their own churches) than it would be possibly allowable in times when religion was actually important in European societies.

I mean, if you were a dirty peasant goat farmer covered in rags, nobody would care even if you praised Odin.

But if you were a free man able to read, even more a learned man (irrelevant though), and were heard saying the smallest thing of what these people casually say, that meant problems. Not even with law.
