One of us says the entire concept of what the "Dark Ages" meant has been mythologized, and I have given you four books by reputable scholars to prove it and you give me nothing but words. Keep workin.

I'll try again: Read Rodney Stark, "The Victory of Reason," a study of what actually happened in the so-called Dark Ages. Ask yourself who named it the "Dark Ages" (hint: liberals trying to puff themselves up during the Enlightenment while denying---there's your warmism---the achievements of the Church. Now PLEASE read something before you reply.

Here’s a better idea. You explain why it is that every school, every college, every everything recognizes and teaches the idea of “The Dark Ages.”

Your problem is with a term. Not history. There’s not a lot I can do about that. It’s a fact of history that the wars, diseases and God help us all, climate all depressed large swaths of Europe. Of COURSE there were moments of light in the darkness. I don’t deny that. But History happened.
