There is even recent dam project in modern Iran that would threaten the submerging of the tomb of Cyrus the Great , which would not bother the current fundamentalist Mullahs & religious leaders at all, just as it did not bother the early Christian or Jewish "fathers" to destroy anything that was "pagan" at all.

What is significant of this very compassionate persian King is his great tolerance and actor as deliverer of the Jews to return back to their homeland and rebuild the temple . He is mentioned 23 times in the OT , and alluded to much more which says a great deal for merry old king Cyrus :
en.wikipedia.org

Now do you see a pattern developing here of how history has been marred and misalligned to suit anyone who had the power with a selfish aim in promoting a "belief" and distorting or destroying true history ?

Would you as a Christian like to see the disappearance of the history of the one "pagan" who made possible the return & rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem? Can you not see the pattern which history even today is abused & corrupted by "religious leaders" for political control for promoting only that narrow fundamentalist dogmatic view , which so disregards the true events of the past ? (In the name of God/Allah of course )

The same thing occurs in Afghanistan recently with the blowing up by explosives those statues of the Buddha in Bamiyan which were world treasures belonging to all the peoples of the earth. Now imagine yourself back almost 2000yrs ago , and remember this and apply it to that time of early Christianity, its leaders and the accuracy of its "record keeping " thru selective destruction.

I think you can get part the of the point i am making here of the accuracy of "Historicity" ...
