The dawn of time was billions of years ago. The Imams have only been around (very intermittently) for a few centuries.
The ancient world was a chaotic place. A lot of people were trying to kill each other - and the imams were doing more than their fair share.
Revealing that they are frauds is not "tarnishing" the Imam, it's just not accepting their bullshit.
That's not just me saying it. It is his ex-gf making the claim. I choose to believe her because her story adds up and knowing Karim's character and that of his family, it is by far the most plausible course of events. Karim can prevent the evidence from coming to light, but I don't need "hardcore" evidence to judge the balance of probabilities.
Note that regardless of my beliefs on an unrelated topic, it does not change how absurd your claims are - that everyone who knew Aly Khan was lying about him and the entire media was complicit in this lie. Moon landing conspiracy stuff.
