It was during the Middle Ages that the church invented, for all practical purposes, the modern university.Such as Cornell, Brown, Columbia, etc ... where liberals are mass produced.

Think of them as leftist reservations where parents pay exorbitant fees so their children can look at them in between their drinking binges and government sanctioned sex orgies.

Oh, good grief, the larger universities were not created during the middle ages, but the age of enlightenment!
BUT, it could be argued, from science advancement, that those early universities LED to the age of enlightenment
I believe it was the release of the Bible in the common tongue that led to men thinking more and being smarter.
