    What asteroid? How do you know an asteroid ever did what you say? Nope. Not a theory of science. This is also a religion.
    Nope. You can't go back in time to see what actually happened. That is the only test available. It is not possible to conduct it.
    So it's a meaningless buzzword.
    A meaningless buzzword is contributing to the expansion of the Universe? How do you know it's expanding? Have you seen the boundaries?
    Circular definition. Try again.
    No argument presented. Denial of science. Buzzwords. Circular argument fallacies (fundamentalism).
    The buzzword is cognitive dissonance with assertions of denials of science where, with advances in multiple sciences as photography from space above where the asteroid impacted down in Mexico at The Chicxulub crater. Super ego fallacies where argument fallacies renders it little more than the Christiananality pedophilia religion falsifications.

    Why does that make a difference? The great cycle of life. It's why farm and ranch girls are so much fun; they've seen the cycle of life and seek to enjoy it.

    You would likely never have heard of Christianity or Jesus without Paul's missionary work to the Gentile communities, or without Constantine deciding to give the Empire's blessing to a minor and fairly obscure religion.

    Without Paul and Constantine, Christianity might well have remained an obscure and tiny sect of Judaism and might have faded away with time.

    That is what I meant that in the context of history, Jesus would never have been of profound historical influence without Paul and Constantine, and the events surrounding them over the course of three centuries.
