Well assuming Christianity didn't rise up, that would mean Jesus was either never born or never taught his philosophy. If that happened, there would be no Crusades, no Muslim Religion, no Spanish Inquisition, no Haulocaust, The Byzantine Empire would have never existed. Most likely the Renesaunts wouldn't have happened, and we wouldn't have world wonders such as Christ the Redeemer, Hagia Sophia, and The Vatican. We also would never have gone looking for relics such as the Holy Grail, Spear of Destiny, and The Holy Nails. But most importantly, if we didn't have Christianity, we wouldn't have had Christmas, Easter, and all the big money makers and plenty of businesses would never have happened without Christianity, that is, if we advance any further in technology, Christianity was a major advancement in the human advancement, and its best not to imagine a world without it.
