I recommend 2 Great Books (1) How Christianity changed the world by Prof Alvin Schmidt
(2) How the Catholic Church built Western Civilization by Professor Thomas Woods.
https://www.amazon.in/Christianity-Chang...0310264499
https://www.amazon.in/Catholic-Church-Bu...1596983280
Both written by Western Scholars though the above links are to Amazon India. I ordered both these books recently and read them and they're excellent imo.
Nope.
The British navy basically brought the Atlantic slave trade to an end.
Christians in the Americas were still using the bible to justify slavery up to the civil war.
The church held back science and progress in the Western world for centuries. They didn't build on the knowledge of the former societies. We have Islam to thank for a lot of that (before they were dragged into barbarity by their fanatics, too,,).
