Yeah, it built medieval Europe to the point that it could, and did, resist and repulse the imperial Persians and Mongols.
I've got plenty of issues with the Catholic Church, but you'd be blind if you couldn't see how much White excellence it's channelled over the centuries.
You mean how Anatolia was subjugated by Muslims for 800 years and allowed the Ottoman Empire to subjugate the Balkans and reach the gates of Vienna multiple times? How it fractured Europe, called for crusades against Europeans to violently convert them (and one of them killed the Byzantine Empire too), caused multiple religious wars, amongst them the 30 Years War that killed a third of Germany's population at the time?
White excellence only really began AFTER the European nobility curbed the power of the Church. The only thing that the Church channeled is European wealth into its own pockets just as democracy only channeled European wealth into the pockets of a select few individuals while destroying European heritage all over the world.
We can see how that turned out.

Really well in fact.
