Yes, I do not know if the Atwill hypothesis is correct, but I do like
to ask -- "Cui bono?" -- "Who benefits?" and generally find this leads
to useful ideas or insights in things as diverse as 9/11, the London
bombings (nicely timed to distract from the G8 issues and put the
focus back on terrorism), and Christianity itself, which nicely
channelled previously-rebellious, anti-Roman Messianic expectations
into pro-Roman, "quisling" Messianic fervor.

-----In fact the very concept deserves much more consideration in light of the exact same empire of America in bed with fundamentalist Christian thought.  the irony is so apparent considering that the original Christians were slaves, former slaves, outcastes and their kith and kin, ie., all those who were not valued by the Roman empire. Then what happened?  The Empire moved to incorporate the myth and the disenfranchised peoples. Now what is happening, the myth and disenfranchised peoples are running the whole show.  It's a real turnabout, but not really.  Those Christians who are siding with Bush are the dupes of the entire sordid and inconceivably huge conspiratorial Roman motion to quell dissent and discontent over 1700 years ago. Only now has it finally really worked. The people call the Church and the Government their saviors.
