What has Christianity truly contributed to humanity

I wasn't claiming religion as the source of anything, that's not a Christian stance. The things I listed were areas Christians, the "church", or religious dictums contributed to bettering society, as was the original question. I'm also not denying the division and two-faced ness of the "church". The question wasn't "do the scales balance?" it was "has it done anything worth anything?" Knowing that this is a poke thread though, more than likely, it is just a place for anti-theists to vent. I have no problem entertaining actual discussions but it has to be in the vein of the OP. If you want a bag on the church thread, I'm certain there are tons of other places and threads here on that.

Good people do good things. 
There is no evidence that I know of, that proves evil people turn good and do good because of Christianity. 
Correlation is not causation.

How many Loaves and Fishes meals have YOU served to the homeless this week ?
I would like a count of that from all the religionists here.
Where I live the groups who do that consist of far more non religious "do-gooders" than anything else.
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell  Popcorn
