You are right, There is a HUGE difference.

The Great Brit Christians had the philosophical brain fart that provided the spark of rights, liberty and freedom in the Magna Carta. This came at the height of the Christian crusades. Once they learned they could own things... then they saw the development of patent law, the buying and selling of ideas, then the development of the sciences, math, engineering etc etc.... leading into inventions and creativity in the industrial revolution resulting in the dominance of Great Britain.

Nobody else did this, no other nations, no other groups of Christians... not those in Rome, not Eastern Christians ....who are as backwards and messed like muslim nations.

So yes, there are huge differences

My, my, all of that can be attributed to the apostasy of that Augustinian monk and his protege Henry??
