Western civilization is the European Enlightenment, it's not Christianity.
Half of Africa is Christian. So is South America.
And they are not doing too well, are they?
The US was founded on Christianity
Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and right to self defense are not part of Christianity.
Our rights are God given. That’s kinda the founding fathers whole thing. It’s not a privilege that government gives you, these are God given rights.
And this is the concept of Natural Law.
Not my point.
Pick your areas of the planet. They're pretty much all filled to some degree with one religion or another. Replace Christianity with some other religion in the US and you no longer have the same country. Not even close.
Reformation was the start of modern civilization. Religion/God is an important part of law, freedom and civilization
