And I know we’re mostly atheists here, but please keep the theological discussion to a minimum and appreciate the lighthearted hypothetical scenario for what it is.

    Your version of the 8th would literally undo all religion

    It would undo the myths, I think. Morality and religious practices might survive depending on how much they rely on said myths.

    and a bit of science

    It would perhaps demote a lot of theories back to hypotheses, but that’s actually good IMO. A good scientist should embrace the doubt and treat it as a respectable enemy, not hide from it like a catfish in the mud.
