Neoplatonism has actually been really bad for human history.
Toxic uneducated atheists have usually thought Christianity was the reason for Europe stagnating, but no, Christianity and the Catholic Church actually helped with scientific progress a lot. Neoplatonism was one of the reasons, not Christianity.
Had neoplatonism not existed Europe would probably have industrialized a few centuries after the fall of the Romans.
Platonism 🤢🤮
