      religion has often replaced scientifically proven facts, wich is mainly due to religions powerful ability to not have to make sense and still be acceptable.

      now as for religion actually disproving science, those occurences can be counted on zero hands.

      A knowledge witch would curse you with knowing every embarrassing thing you ever did.

        And maybe even things you never could have known. Like what exactly it looked like when your parents conceived you

          Oh, like knowing all the moments things you could have done something different and what the result would have been. All the “they were flirting with you and you didn’t realize” moments and the “and here’s the happy life you could have had” results.

      No, it wasn’t. If you look at religious iconography, you see Jesus sitting on a globe regularly. Kings were endowed with globus cruciger, a representation of Jesus ruling over the globe. Sure there were some people who must have believed in flat earth but they were about as serious as the modern flat earthers.
