  11.  @oliviabaklaton4552  1. Roman Empire in 374 was on brink of collapse if you claim othervise you don't know nothing about roman history and crisis that begins in 3rd century. That was the time of collapse of anciet world. Ancient Rome was dying as a empire and feudal age was coming. Nothing what christianity do was the cause of fall of Rome. 2. Really, prosecutions in time of Nero, Domician and others cesars? That is a myth? 3. Fight was created by powerfull people using religion as a tool. Constantin and high hierachy struck on own enemies, pagans and other christians. Thats fact, whatever you claim that was power struggle, not religious war. Lack iof basic knowledge about politics of rome. You heard about wars between popes and german kaisers? Ring nothing? Church as a absolut power, then why so many popes was killed in this time? 4. Really 40-50% all people living in empire could read? You probably read wrong books, that numbers are in towns and you mean free people. Slaves, farmers, workers in mass can't read latin. The same sytuation as in medival times, check your sources. Rome wasn't that advance in education how you claim. If you claim that from 476 to 1492 were no progres time to read some real history. Schooles you mean was closed because whole ancient economy that support it collapsed. Church was saving knowledge from this schooles. 5. That is for every dominating religion, then what is fault of christianity here? In USSR atheism was like state cult, try to be christian or mahometan in USSR or PRC. 6-9. You know that when Roman Empire fall the most of its knowledge were storage in churches and liberies. But wars between barbarian kings destroy most of it. You heard about Huns, Germanic tribes Vandals or Vikings? Look what in medittaerian world did the islam, most of ancient culture was destroyed by islam invaders, not christians. Look on information about ancient relics and books destroyed bye muslim invaders in 7th to 9th century. They destroy most of knowledge from ancient, not save like you claim. Biggest liberies recaptuterd by reqonquista was base on stole from ancient and christians sources knowledge by muslim rulers. Not created by them. 10.-11. China, India never to 18-19th century was dominated by christian rulers or pope, why they dont go to moon? You know nothing about history of science and technology development. You have head full of antyreligious propaganda. Why islam closed his way to modern science? Not only Europe have technical civilization. What with Mayans, Aztecs or Incas? Your hate for religion closed your eyes to basic knowledge. Your assumption is based on idea that atheism is not a form of godless religion. When i hear the idiocy claims made by atheist ideologs i know they know nothing about history. I don't support any organise religion, even it is called atheism. Fanatism is yhe biggest problem, whatever what is it source. Religious or secular. Look like SJW or Flatearthers attack modern sicence. Don't belive in propaganda, check other sources. Church in Europe made many bad things, but also do many good. Like secular rulers Church could be building force or destructive.
