Think real hard about the religion which caused the modern world to happen. It turns out to be he same one which preserved Greek philosophy to start the enlightenment, and served as the public school system for hundreds of years.

If by /lit/ you mean the Perennial Philosophy, then yes

But read Irenaeus, Clement and Hippolytus to gather the scraps of genuine Gnostic wisdom torn to pieces by the Abrahamic God of Law and Chaos

Are you actually this retarded? Catholicism is responsible for modernity in the same way that the husband of an adulterous wife is responsible for her infidelity.

Still, the ancien regime is as responsible for modernity as the husband of an adulterous wife is for her infidelity. A subordinate's determination to defy isn't necessarily evidence that the superior is at fault.

What about before a woman marries her husband? Every time she fornicates she fails in her duty to her husband. Why is he responsible for her sexual misconduct after the marriage if it began before the marriage?
