Will, to the best of my knowledge there was at best a bare minimum of attempts to convert Midieval Christians (which is what we're talking about after all) to Confusionism. Again, to the best of my knowledge, there is no religion associated with King Arthur and no attempts to gain support for the Round Table among Africans or Asians (whatever the definition may be). You may have contrary evidence, but I'm not aware of it.
If you're a Midieval artist (or a Rennaissance artist for that matter), how are you going to depict an Arab when you've never seen one?
I think you're being incredibly short-sited here since you're calling some of the greatest artists in history "idiots". That list includes Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Raphael and Giotto, just to mention the Italian ones. That's the arguement that I see you making, and it's absolute crap. Hence my initial confusion as to why someone of your intellect would even being to try to make it. Stop and think about what you're saying.
