Christianity was supposed to protect the so-called divine right of absolute monarchs to be absolute monarchs. Has it worked at all for any European monarch? Forget the peasants, let's just talk about monarchy.
Did it work for the Roman Empire after Constantine established Christianity in Europe?
Did it work for Charles I?
George III?
Louis XVI?
Nicholas II?
Don’t constitutional monarchs have fewer rights than their subjects now? If any monarch could sue the church, wouldn’t it be for breach of contract and total failure of consideration?
