Then it happened again and again, everywhere christianity marched to. The culture we live in today, as westerners, owes more to european pagans than magic book. The things that people think about christianity..ffs, have more to do with european pagans than magic book.
We cribbed our government from greeks and romans. We cribbed our legal system from germanics. We cribbed our music and our food from..well..everywhere. We don't believe what the magic book says...and havent for quite some time, if it's really accurate to say that we ever truly did. For the better part of christian history™, the vast majority of christians had no idea what was in the damned thing to begin with...and the christian authorites had their hands entirely full telling people to stop believing what they did and stop living like we do, usually under pain of death. It's downright filthy to then suggest that we owe this to magic book - but that's the effect of multigenerational conditioning and propaganda.
