Europe had natural advantages over China and India, for example, and were the situations reversed, we'd be owing our values to Buddha or Vishnu or Laozi or Confucius. So having the values we have owes as much to the choices of Rome and the accident of its geographical location as it does to any specifically Christian merits.
An outstandingly good point.
Still waiting for SC to explain why Christian history proves the existence of the Christian god (my hopes are not high).
