They literally cleared the path for liberalism. One of the greatest ironies of history. Both of them had an unusual respect for Islam and Muslims too unlike their fellow adverseries. They knew the enemies were the godless materialistic Jews.
Is it surprising we are seeing the same Hegelian dialectic play out once again. They thought they were saving Christianity in the end they basically killed it off. Inadvertently so. They didn't live to see the day.
Copers (@PrinceLuenLeoncur) believe Islam will play out the same way and when you look at Turkey and Saudi it's easy to say yes perhaps that's true. One extreme plays into the hands of the other. I kind of agree they are beyond repair. But that's not the case elsewhere. Thankfully Islam has no cuckish pope, leader and even when they had "caliphs" (more political and ceremonial) they were constantly challenged and many opposing caliphs - it's inherently symbolic religiously given the ulema (scholars) who they were at odds with throughout history. It's like it's in our DNA to be political. Islam is more decentralised than Bitcoin maxis can dream of. Not to mention there is no reform (shirk) in Islam only renovation (tajdid). It has adapted to changing societies unlike Christianity which Europeans had to throw off in order to ascend.
