If you're just wanting to tease Masoni, polymath, and Sungula for their obvious bigotry, then I'd understand saying this.
However, we have to admit that there have been majority-Christian societies which were civilizations.
Unless everybody wants to define "civilization" as a society that wasn't based on violence and had utopian equality throughout its existence. If that's the case, then such a thing has never existed.
Bigotry makes me angry, I just find it amusing that they refer to Islam as the biggest danger while the world is stacked with atomic bombs, masses are hungry in Africa, Yemenies are getting slaughtered, just in mere 80 years non-Muslims slaughtered 100 million people in WW2, China is massacring the Uighur Muslims, but bigots like Masoni are angry because Erdogan just made a museum that was a mosque into a mosque again !!
Bigotry can reach high levels; but this type of bigotry is....cold, brutal. I mean what kind of people are these?
Back to our discussion: I think Christianity inherited the decaying Roman culture for a small while, then sunk into the darkness of the dark ages; which saw little to no advancement in culture. The Christian world only revived when it rejected the bible and overthrew the Church after the French revolution.
