🔥 The West wasn’t built on woke – it was built on faith in Jesus Christ.

They mock Christian values while tweeting from a civilisation built on them… here’s the truth they don’t want you to hear.

Western Civilisation Was Built on Christian Values

Western civilisation didn’t just randomly stumble into success, liberty, and iPhones. It was built - brick by moral brick - on Christian values. Yes, that ancient, dusty moral compass often mocked by university professors in between lectures on how great Karl Marx is and radical gender theory. Turns out, the very foundation they’re standing on while criticising it was poured by Christ Himself and cemented by centuries of Christian teaching.

Let’s get one thing straight: Christianity isn't just a personal faith, it’s the philosophical bedrock of the West.

The belief in one true God who created humanity in His image and gave us objective moral laws, not scribbled up by politicians or massaged through a PR agency.

That singular idea - that human beings possess inherent dignity because they are created by God - is the cornerstone of liberty.

It’s why you have rights before the government decides to “grant” them. It’s why Western law said kings couldn’t just burn down your cottage on a whim. Because without a divine moral law above man made authority, all you’re left with is mob rule and whatever slogan trends on social media.

The old testament declared, “Thou shalt not kill,” long before modern ideologues dreamt up “restorative justice” for home invaders. It proclaimed, “Thou shall not steal,” centuries before looting was rebranded as “redistributive protest.” It taught, “Honour your father and mother,” back when that wasn’t treated as a microaggression. These weren’t just pious suggestions, they were the scaffolding of a civilisation that respected life, property, and family.

Even capitalism - yes, the dreaded engine of Western prosperity - relies on Christian ethics. Why trust a merchant if honesty isn’t a virtue? Why lend money if there’s no cultural expectation to repay it? Try running a free market economy in a society where lying, theft, and envy are morally neutral, or worse, subsidised.

The irony? The people enjoying the fruits of the West, its freedom of speech, trial by jury, property rights, and the privilege to protest the system while sipping a $7 soy latte, are the same ones most desperate to sever the moral roots of the very tree they’re perched on. And they’re doing it with sanctimonious flair.

Critics dismiss Christianity as outdated. Yet everything they say they cherish - equality, justice, human rights - is completely dependent on the belief that those rights were granted by God. Strip that away, and you don’t get utopia. You get power games, surveillance states, and drag queen story hour for children.

Without Christianity, Western civilisation isn’t “liberated” - it’s unmoored. Our freedom didn’t emerge from the Enlightenment as if by magic. It was born at the cross, where Christ taught that liberty starts in the heart not in legislation.

Christianity provided the moral foundation for the greatest civilisation the world has ever seen. And it’s about time we stopped apologising for that.
