Constantinople was founded by Constantine and was a Christian city until being taken by Mehmed II in 1453.
You are correct that it was a Christian City until 1453. You don't seem to know that the 4 Crusade conquered the city in 1205.
The great historian of the Crusades, Sir Steven Runciman, wrote that the sack of Constantinople is unparalleled in history.
For nine centuries, he goes on, the great city had been the capital of Christian civilisation. It was filled with works of art that had survived from ancient Greece and with the masterpieces of its own exquisite craftsmen. The Venetians wherever they could seized treasures and carried them off. But the Frenchmen and Flemings were filled with a lust for destruction: they rushed in a howling mob down the streets and through the houses, snatching up everything that glittered and destroying whatever they could not carry, pausing only to murder or to rape, or to break open the wine-cellars. Neither monasteries nor churches nor libraries were spared. In St Sophia itself drunken soldiers could be seen tearing down the silken hangings and pulling the silver iconostasis to pieces, while sacred books and icons were trampled under foot. While they drank from the altar-vessels a prostitute sang a ribald French song on the Patriarchs throne. Nuns were ravished in their convents. Palaces and hovels alike were wrecked. Wounded women and children lay dying in the streets. For three days the ghastly scenes continued until the huge and beautiful city was a shambles. Even after order was restored, citizens were tortured to make them reveal treasures they had hidden."
That is how 'Christians' treat other 'Christians' after they have conquered them. This all happened in 1205 and it opened the door for the Muslims to eventually conquer the city.
Yeah. I knew that.
I also knew the ambivalence with which the Eastern Orthodox viewed the Crusades and the Crusaders.
Of course, the fact that you have now attempted to change the subject from the origin of the Renaissance to general Christophobia shows you were wrong -- and I was right -- in the first place.

Post hoc ergo proctor hoc. One had nothing to do with the other.
Don't you have a community college or something where you can take a history course?
