Besides islam, Christianity is probably the worst religion out there.

The world would be a much better place if the crusades never happened.

And no, I'm not counting the crusades defending against muslims, those might have been the only decent crusades.

One neat, interesting place in history is Cordova.  Intersection of all three Abrahamic religions in mutual peace and in an intellectually-enriching atmosphere.

Christianity just prolonged the dark ages with their bullstuff crusades.

I wonder how different we would be if that never happened.

Atheistic German tribes created the dark ages.

I wonder how different we would be if that never happened.

I mean history's problems are kinda borne out of other's problems.  Human history is a long chain of forgetups.

[PhantOS]

islam is better

praise our great lord and savior

First, the crusades occurred in the 11th-13th centuries, after the dark ages ended.
Second, the crusades brought neat stuff back to europe, like spices, castle designs, and more advanced mathematics.
Third, the third crusade was the loving best thing with Richard the Lionheart, Frederick Barbarossa, and Saladin.
Fourth, they were started for more political reasons. (the first started because Constantinople was being harassed and the pope wanted to get the warring Franks out of his hair)
Fifth, if you're nihilistic, why are you trying to force your beliefs?

His beliefs are the best, believing anything else is wrong. If you do, he will hunt you down and harass you until you convert.
