Doesn't every effort to explain it miss something? What is missing here?

Now we're in John Lennon territory...♫♪

What? They have their moments. (They want it that way) 🎼🎵🎶🎙️

Absence of Abrahamic theories does not mean absence of religion. There were folk religions/paganism all through Europe. Maybe the Norse mythologies would have gained dominance. Or the Druids. Or somebody else. Or... It's impossible to ascertain actual, factual counterfactual outcomes, but...

Thanks!!

But for some reason at least years ago I didn't see it. I don't know why.

Great! As long as they still make 'em like they did 20 years ago or whenever it was I got mine, it will work out great. It looks the same, the product description is the same, and the reviews are very good. 🥫⚒️:)
