Point is science only functions when their is freedom of beleif, take that away for any reason and you're basically just as bad as the Church when they where in power. 

Seriously, blame the people not the what they claim to believe. 

That was kind of the point I was trying to make. marioboy2004 suggested there was some correlation between christianity and the worlds brightest thinkers I was trying to show that that isn't really the case. My example was trying to show that incredibly controlling religions like Christianity or Islam were in the middle ages deter rather than encourage progress and only after having freedom of belief was society able to properly progress again.

Atheism is just an eloquent way for people to use flowery verbs and adjectives to Re-present pagan morality as the "new age" morality, when in fact abortion, euthanasia, and sexual hedonism were all there before Christianity came to be..it's the "neopaganism" and Christians just filtered the harmful stuff out
Even the slavery abolitionist movement was led by the Church.. Martin Luther king jr was a renowned preacher and christian himself


Lol we that's quite ironic considering that Christianity was one of the tools used by the slavers in the first place to pacify the enslaved and also to justify the act of slavery in the first place 

 

You might want to research that 

 

Another interesting tidbit is that the bible does not abhor slavery
