“Men have left GOD not for other gods, they say, but for no God; and this has never happened before”
T.S. Eliot (1888–1965) 20th century English author
Choruses from The Rock (1934)
Context: But it seems that something has happened that has never happened before: though we know not just when, or why, or how, or where.

And then Money, and Power, and what they call Life, or Race, or Dialectic.
