Addendum: When I described early America as a “universally Christian/European” nation I forgot to add the following footnote:*
*SLAVERY EXISTED AND SO DO NATIVE AMERICANS

I KNOW QUETZALCOATLUS IS A PTEROSAUR NOT A DINOSAUR CAN WE PLEASE FOCUS

Really old gods are fun because they tend to have spread out and fractalized over time, spawning off culturally specific versions of themselves as their stories travel around. This can lead to a veritable conspiracy wall of potential connections drawing disparate gods together to a common origin. But in the case of the Mesoamerican Feathered Serpent figure, I think we can make a pretty strong case for a unified origin without having to break out the tinfoil hats!
