The Forgotten Architects: How the Catholic Church Built Our World
Imagine a world without universities, scientific inquiry, international law, or even the concept of human rights. This isn't a dystopian future - it's what our present might have been without the Catholic Church's profound influence on Western civilization. While many acknowledge the Church's contributions to art and music, few recognize how Catholic thought created universities, pioneered scientific methods, established legal frameworks, and developed economic theories that shape our modern world. The evidence is overwhelming: without the Catholic Church, our civilization - with its commitment to reason, human dignity, and scientific progress - simply wouldn't exist as we know it.
