We are all Roman. Our Western Culture is defined by our shared history with Greece and Rome

Shared? They left some cool stuff and it was used as a blueprint. That's all

No. The principles of Rome especially are more than a blueprint for modern Western culture. The Federalist Papers, for example, were published under the Roman pseudonym Publius. Americans were steeped in classical literature, and Latin works like those of Cicero are still prevalent in British academia and America. De O. takes his username from one of those works of Cicero. The Romans practically invented Liberty that Hash always (rightfully) rattles on about. The classical civs of Greece and Rome are more than a vague blueprint. They created the lifeblood of Western Civ as it has been for a while: Liberty and a people's government, be it a republic or a democracy.

No surprises. As someone already said, the questions left a lot to be desired when it comes to nuance.

That lifeblood was cut off for a long time.

Someone's been consuming too much New Atheism i suspect and bought the myth of "The Dark Ages". You need to read up on Augustine, Thomas Aquinas and the Medieval Synthesis. Hint: It starts with Aristotle and ends with the Renaissance.

Philosophy in monasteries is one thing. The lived experience of people is an another.
