AHC: Unite the three major Abrahamic religions

I'm sorry, but you're insisting on discussing the topic from a granular level, while I'm discussing the matter on a macro level. We're clearly not even discussing the same things.

So, again, feel free to be offended at the comments about secular wesern society at large, but I stand by them.

I am talking on the macro level.
Secular is vague enough to include the overwhelming majority of people who identify as a religion. Now it may be fair to say that these people do not understand all the nitty gritty of their religion, but then I would say that if we go to that extent then there is little evidence that this has applied to any population in human history.
For "Atheistic" groups, there is again enough of an understanding to get to the point of rejection as the idea of a God in some form or another is hard to escape.

If we went by the original statement you wished an addendum to:
You know I think it today's largely secular western world we forget just how much religion and theology mattered in centuries past, people spent hours upon hours upon years debating various points people today would consider either a waste of time or arcane.

Or to put it in more simple terms theology is the art and science of knowing and understanding God, understanding God is key to knowing what God expects and thinks, knowing what God expects and thinks is crucial to being able to meet him one day.
I am wondering where on Earth you could have not only the religious literacy rates of the past, but also how you could demonstrate that the past somehow had these debates at a rate anything beyond the extreme minority of scholars/preists compared to the modern world where everyone and their grandmother could discuss the merits of the various sides in the Nicean debates.
