    It’s dark age Europe, because of the chuch.

    Aquinas apologetics in there too, yay.

    Fortunately no one owns the period or phrase and we are free to call dark age Europe dark age Europe if we wish, and I couldn’t give a fuck if someone with a sticker thinks otherwise.

    Academia as everything else runs on trends, fashions and the needs of the masses, even those that don’t go to masses anymore.
