I believe that some radical once wrote, “Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people,” in about 1843. This is around the time that Darby was fashioning his #pbcc theology. /1
1844 was quite the year for theology and philosophy and science and movements. This is made very clear in these screenshots from a site you definitely don’t want to visit. But it sums things up nicely AND thinks Darby was evil so I am down with that. /2 
For almost 200 years folks have fought- blood on the streets in many instances- over these competing ways of looking at the world. But Darby managed to convince not just HIS church, but other churches, too, that #TheEndIsNear - Jesus is coming back to take believers to heaven./3
