Would we still have the Sistine Chapel, the Notre Dame? Would Michelangelo still be as famous? A lot of classical music was created by composers that were inspired by their Christian faith, would classical music still sound the same?

Not a religious debate.

I was just listening to St Matthews Passion by Bach and it made me think of how many things I appreciate about our culture that are inspired by Christianity. How different would our culture be if the Church wasn't such a major patron of arts?

Let's say communism never happened in China, which religion do you think they would have? I wonder how different Christian china would be.

They would have fallen into the Judeo-Christian trap too. Every modernized Christian community eventually does. Hence why traditions are so important. A return to arranged marriage isn't optional.

because history keeps getting intentionally muddled so we forget the lessons of the past and the people muddying it get to direct who we blame to obscure themselves in plain sight.

>not retaining White history

That's an effect too. The cause is the nuclear family.

Whites used multi-generational households for millennia to pass down traditions, customs, and stigmas. The family reinforced their history and values while defending against subversion. Arranged marriage (courtship) kept this system going. (((They))) made sure that (((dating))) and (((love marriage))) were pushed hard enough to transition Whites to the (((nuclear family))). The results were great for the subversive powers. A total downward spiral of tradition in the century that nuclear families have been common. Single mother households are becoming increasingly common as the next phase in the natural progression of the nuclear family's inability to preserve tradition.

We need to go back. Arranged marriage isn't optional.
