If the Christian premis itself was correct other than being out of the proper time frame, then the Nazarean Essenes were the true christian religion and all of Judaism including both the Isralites animal and Molech worshiping Israelites human sacrifices were a terrible apostasy ever after the time of Tutankhamun. The true Christians would all be vegetarians. None of them would expect the old testament to have any validity whatsoever. And preists would be required to marry instead of being required a life of abstenance.
If your premise was correct, then there is no 'correct' time frame. Religious mythology has no 'historical' time. Who is to say that the Egyptian mythology wasn't recycled from Atlantis, or even recycled for the tenth time before the Egyptian dynasties?
The Nazarenes/Essenes ARE the true Christian religion, and animal/Molech worship was an apostacy, just as claimed by the prophets who opposed it on that basis.
True Christians ARE vegetarians. It may be permitted on the basis of the example of Noah under emergency conditions to allow killing and eating of animals, but there is no excuse for it in times of plenty, and especially nowadays with refridgerators, and crops available in every season. For basic humanitarian reasons based upon Christian teachings of love and good stewardship, most mature Christians become vegetarians. And they have the biblical support not only of John the Baptist and the Essenes, but also of DANIEL, the Vegetarian Hero (see 1st chapter! how could you miss the point of the story there?) as well as the NT author of Hebrews who claims that the sacrifice is finished along with the temple. No Sacrifice = no meat. duh.
Most Christians are well aware of the basic problems that surround the validity of the Old Testament. After all, a whole new religion (Christianity) came out of the inadequacies of the O.T. Duh.
Priests who marry ARE preferred, even in in the Anglican (Church of England) denomination which is essentially Catholicism without gay priests (or used to be). If even Anglicans agree with marriage for priests, along with Jews, who is holding out?
Most Christians with brains are essentially Essenes. QED.
Christianity remains NOT disproven.
