The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

My brothers,

Let us reflect upon the history of Western civilization and its spiritual partner which allowed it to progress even through the hardest of times.

The question now stands, would Western civilization be the same if Christianity never existed? And, perhaps a better question is: would it be worse? Or, more controversially, would it be better?

1) It wouldn't be the same

2) It would certainly have been worse (read early Church Father accounts of paganism) in some ways

3) It would have possibly been better in others, specifically I am thinking of greater religious tolerance and the lack of causing Islam to exist (Christians had a MAJOR part in this). Which has caused indirectly all the chaos we see with them today

>would it be the same?

It wouldn't be a thing.

The concept of Europe was solidified during the Middle Ages and it was (and still is to the dismay of many) a Christian concept. Western Civilization and Christianitas are one and the same.
