Its true. Its like they romanticize pre-Christain culture like it was some sort of 70s hippie love fest of freedom till Jews came and ruind it with its prude rules.
There was no freedom. If anything, Christianity brought freedom. Saying the individual governs the self.
That was revolutionary!
Before that, you were a slave to society, and the family clan. You had no individualism. You certainly didnt have the luxury to exsist as a loner back then either. You needed to be a socially accountable part of society to survive without modernism.
You couldn't exsist as some perpetualent child with repugnant social skills that refuses to work.
What muddles the positive impact the Christan revolution had on society is the Catholic crusades.
Catholics are just pagans cloaked with a veil of Christianity.
Roman powers that be knew they couldnt stop the Christain movment. So they assimilated it to get ahead of the trend, to lord over and profit off it as the centralized morally superior authority.
Pre-Catholic Rome threw Christians in lion pits and persecuted anyone who didn't fall under their specific brand of authority afterwords.
Not saying good people like Martin Luther couldnt be produced from the catholic church. But its awlays a spit in the eye of true Christianity.

I strongly disagree. Stopping pedophile slave trading Muslims from invading Europe further means Christians were willing and able to cement their place in the world. The crusades were a time of great men fighting for God and Christianity. This was a glorious time in my opinion and much better than the passionless worms in much of today's society.
