Based trips checked, and, eh, sure I guess if you want to put it like that to describe some major parts, but I don’t think it encapsulates ALL of it. Greece and Rome as particular powerhouses of influence on Western civilization, and as reaching some of the heights of Western civilization, yes, absolutely. Spain, well, seems a little big to put it on the same historical level as Ancient Greece and Rome for how crucial they were in influencing Western civilization/the heights they reached in their culture. Gothic cathedrals were built across Italy, England, France too. And great literary, artistic, philosophical and theological powerhouses spread among them. I’m not too excellent at history, I might be wrong and Spain was an especial powerhouse and I just didn’t know it, but I lean towards being skeptical of that. If anything id say Italy for the Renaissance.

>Greco-Roman European culture was already destroyed by Christians. Save your crocodile tears.
First point accepted, I do apologize for forgetting to bring it up and actually, interestingly enough, I was planning to while writing the post, just my sentences got too long and took on a life of their own & I forgot to include it.
But, yes, entirely consistently with what I’m saying, I LIKEWISE am against the historical Christian razing of and attacks on “pagan culture.” I’m against the Christian brutes who killed Hypatia, against the ones who defaced Greek and Roman sculptures of various gods and goddesses, smashing the face off and then putting a cross in the remaining flat surface, or even simply just scratching a cross into the forehead, stuff like that. I was going to bring it up as another example, just forgot to include it.
