Whoah. Be careful slinging around the F-bomb, bro.
When talking about causation of events where there is no data, much less reproducible data, you certainly have room to disagree with some evidence and prefer others, but it goes too far to claim "Judaism is actually derived from ancient Babylonian polytheism" is unassailable fact.
That may your belief--and you may interpret some evidence to support your belief--but as you'll be quick to point out to others, having a belief doesn't mean it's true.
The bar for something being a fact is higher than that.
