It is a shocking and absolutely true fact that -- After the Christian Church obtained political control of the Roman Empire, The Christian Church closed every University of higher learning and they closed every library. And THEN the Church sponsored a book burning policy where -- over the next two centuries - EVERY SINGLE BOOK IN THE ENTIRE ROMAN EMPIRE WAS DESTROYED.
EVERY SINGLE BOOK ON --
MEDICINE,
ARCHITECTURE,
SCIENCE,
HISTORY,
MATHEMATICS,
AGRICULTURE,
POETRY,
LAW,
PHYSICS,
CHEMISTRY,
MUSIC,
ART,
ENGINEERING,
DRAMA
--- was destroyed. Burned. The Books were Burned.
This was one of the great crimes against humanity in all of the history of civilization and it was sponsored and organized by the CHRISTIAN CHURCH.
The ONLY books, or writings, for either the Greek or the Roman Empire that survived to this day, were preserved OUTSIDE THE BOUNDARY of the Roman Empire. It was the enemies and allies of Rome that preserved her literature, books, culture, and spirit, because The Christian Church tried to destroy it all.
(This historical fact is documented in the books "The Story of Civilization" by Will and Ariel Durant)
