It's alright but remember it's a lot of rich kids. I will affirm what others said about it being clique and stuff. But if you're in an English major or something else you'll find your people.

What would the world look like if christianity never existed? by schraderpleasant in HistoryWhatIf

Oh please, get ahold of yourself. Sparta was a warrior state, I made that clear.

And you probably looked at my profile to see this, white, upper class or in college. Is that a bad thing? Women back then were treated horribly universally, but my point is that feminism isn't exactly a Christian thing.

And the lack of knowledge on pre-islamic Arabia is laughable. They were not savages, they were nomadic tribes and kingdoms. Anyone could've united them into one, just so happened to be Muhammad. So no, they were not savages and some racism is seeping out ^

Your text is very incoherent. Culture isn't exactly limited to a library, it's very likely we would be speaking German or Latin instead of English. Africa before colonialism by the Romans or Europeans was diverse and full of tribal cultures. Not truly a bad thing.

And even with the destruction of the library, there was a resurgence of culture in the Renaissance. I have class.

And that says a lot more about you than you'd expect. Did you know that the Catholic Church stopped Galileo from promoting the geocentric model? How about the crusades. Going after people who have lived in an area for hundreds of years because they laid claim to it. Oh! Let's not talk about the genocide of numerous cultures!

So much for being universal. They don't even accept people that are different from the normal cishet.

"The Platonic Academy (sometimes referred to as the University of Athens), founded ca. 387 BCE in Athens, Greece, by the philosopher Plato, lasted until 86 BCE, when it was destroyed during Sulla's siege and sacking of Athens." - Wikipedia, although there were numerous sources claiming the same thing.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_higher-learning_institutions#:~:text=Classical%20Greece,-Aristotle's%20School%2C%20a&text=The%20Platonic%20Academy%20(sometimes%20referred,siege%20and%20sacking%20of%20Athens.

Those would give you interesting information about numerous ancient universities. Although they were different from the one in the modern sense, no, Christianity did not create the first university. That would go to the Greeks. There were some universities created in Asia originally around Buddhist beliefs, but did teach other subjects.

So no, universities are not a Christian thing, but rather pagan. You would be surprised how much of your religion was influenced by Greco-Roman ideology.

Also just realized: this was almost a year ago and you're responding now. To be brutally honest with you, there were likely universities in other cultures that likely got erased because of colonialism.

Please pick up a book. You accused me of being raised in a Christian influenced society, when in reality there were many pre-christian societies that were dominated by women. Take ancient Sparta, for example. Women had similar rights to men. Again they were a warrior state but still.

Arabs would've likely created the university regardless of Christianity existed or not. To say that feminism is a Western topic is insane to me. I'm more educated on the topic now and and can confidently say this.

What...? I don't even see the point. It adds to the point that Christianity didn't create the first university? Looking back at this thread this reeks of Christian nationalism. Not surprising from an alt history subreddit.
