Imagine how much lead we could have produced if not for the CHRISTIAN dark ages that set humanity back 1500 years.
>>18582717If not for the CHRISTIAN dark ages, maybe we would've figured out how bad even very low-level lead exposure was sooner, and there would only be one spike on the graph instead of two. Alternatively, maybe the Roman lead poisoning theory is correct, and the dark ages are in large a consequence of widespread retardation from lead, so it would've happened with or without Christianity.
