What has Christianity truly contributed to humanity

We keep hearing, from Christians mainly, that Christianity has been, for the most part, a positive force in the world.
I dispute that, and would be happy to have anyone post anything good that Christianity has contributed to humanity or the world in general.
Of course, anyone can feel free to dispute, debate, or otherwise shut down any claims.
Also, feel free to list anything that Christianity has done to damage the planet or humanity.
This thread is open to all varieties of Christianity, from Catholics to Mormons to Johos.
And...
GO!

Circa 1000 CE Olaf Tryggvason, the Christian king of Norway, resorted to hostage-taking to force Iceland to adopt Christianity.

If Christianity had died the change to the world would be negligible at best.
