Only nitpicking, but it's actually the other way around. The hedonists decided to break out of the ethical norm. Gods of all kinds, and their moral dictates and their followers existed before that.

Now if by hedonists you're speaking broadly about any sort of man that operates outside of christian(or whatever) morality, then supposedly yeah, they predate gods.


However, you make a valid case as to religion being defensive tactics to ethical subjectivism, but that happened much later in the french revolution.
