But Aristotle was not simply a believer in mechanisms for he also coined a phrase such as Moderation in all Things. It was also the teachings of Aristotle that saved Christianity from the Dark Ages around 1000 AD when Islamic scholars passed on the Light of Reason or the Search for Enquiry to the dashing young French Christian monk Peter Abelard, enabling the barbarian West to get rid of much of the Christian faith that was misguided.
Indeed, it is believed that much of both Christian and Islamic faiths have become misguided today, changing certain passages of the Bible and Koran into Gospel truth when much could be only symbolic.
Yes, there is an old saying that we can learn much from the Ancient Greeks, and maybe the world would be a better place if we gave it a try - Christians, Jews, and Moslems all, especially that important one - Moderation in all Things!
