I wonder at times would it have been better for Civilization had the 95 theses been an apologia for paganism instead of Protestantism. It would be hard to overstate the evil Protestantism has unleashed upon the world.

Protestantism and Paganism are different species of the same godlessness. Paganism is just more open about it–protestants (at least, the ones that i know) rely on you not being very curious.
By way of analogy:
A Catholic, a protestant, and a pagan all go to a restaurant and order a meal. When the Catholic tries his, he says to the waiter, “I love this meal, my compliments to the chef! May i have the recipe?” To which the waiter responds, “of course! I will bring it out with the bill.”
The protestants meal tastes funny, but he cant tell what is wrong with it. The protestant says to the waiter, “excuse me, i’d like to know whats in this meal. Could you provide the recipe?” To which the waiter replies, “its beef.” The protestant looks at the meal and can tell there is more than just beef, but he knows what beef is and decides that is enough.
The Pagan only ordered water, and brought his own aluminum foil wrapped lasagna he made at home. The Catholic and the Protestant look at him in horror and ask “what is that?!” To which the Pagan replies, “I made it myself!” The Catholic turns away, disgusted; the protestant says “that looks good!”

I think we would have to distinguish between ancient and modern paganism. I find more to admire in a pagan like Plato or Aristotle than a “fellow believer” like Cromwell or John Hagee. Modern paganism is equally cringe though.
