Beware of xtian thugs with torches.

To be fair Richard Carrier, only goes as far as Christians just not being interested in ancient science so that these works got preserved. For example every letter of St Jerome was preserved by the Christian copyists. Likewise we have tons of manuscripts of various "Church Fathers", however very little of the ancient scientists.

It is more a case of sheer disinterest in science to antipathy by early Christians who rightly inferred that scientific discoveries often challenged biblical propositions.
