>Urth is in a gnostic iteration of Briah and Severian is its Christ.
 
This is essentially my view also. I'm not sure if I would have included
the Catholic Church on Urth, but Dorcas does mention a "rood".
 
I think it is an interesting thought experiment to consider what the 
Catholic Church would be like without any Jesus. Perhaps Wolfe also.
 
>From a Christian perspective I find it pretty depressing to think that
after tens of thousands of years of Christ influence Earth would
turn out as bleak as Urth.
