Girard on Intelluctual's Adoration of Paganism

"Since the Renaissance, paganism has enjoyed among our intellectuals a reputation for transparency, sanity, and health that nothing can shake. Paganism is favorably perceived as always opposes to everything 'unhealthy' that Judaism and Christianity impose. [...] The intellectuals and other cultural elites have promoted Christianity to the role of number one scapegoat."
