I'm not convinced that Christianity was as influential as you say it is - can you direct me to something that would enlighten me with regards to this topic?
Even if it has influenced our societies, today, so what? Why does that matter?

If you have an open mind, you will check this out. It is an authoritative history of Christianity by a professor at Yale. It is long, worth buying though just to flip through. It is not an apologetic for Christianity, it is a serious work of historical scholarship by an established historian.
