Christianity as Rebellion Against the Gods

I will take the easy way out again today and quote someone else's ideas, though this source is pretty impeccable. Can you guess who wrote this?

"In its theology of the history of religions, Christianity does not simply take the side of the religious person, take the side of the conservative who keeps to the rules of play in his inherited institution; the Christian rejection of the gods signifies much rather a choice to be on the side of the rebel, who for the sake of his conscience dares to break free from what is accustomed: this revolutionary trait in Christianity has perhaps far too long been hidden beneath various conservative models."

(N.B. the context here is whether it is better to allow each person to keep his or her own inherited religion; but the strength of the language, in my opinion, can be transferred to the Christian who makes an idol of inherited forms)

I will post the answer tomorrow. But let's have some guesses from the crowd!
