Today, we refer to Christianity's conquest of the West as a triumph. Nixey offers a history of the rise of Christianity in the classical world that focuses on its terrible cost, in terms of violence and dogmatic intolerance, that helped bring upon the dark ages. She shows how, in an orgy of destruction, Jesus's followers helped to pitch Western civilization into a thousand-year-long decline
