Read “The Rise of Early Modern Science - Islam, China, and the West”.

Christianity is the basis of “the West” and due to the underlying beliefs of Christianity, science advanced.

The other worldviews of the time inhibited scientific advancement.

But they did, and it may be that at some point when the church lost that Feudalistic power it once had that things eased up. But to try and gloss over Christian (under the guise of various Man made church organizations) persecution of advanced thinkers is undeniable.

There was a pretty long period of time of when the Church couldn’t control it, they destroyed it.
