The ancient Greeks weren't Christian. They were pagans. Regardless of their wisdom, they still failed to understand morality. They did their best, but they didn't have the light of divine revelation to guide them, and so fell into darkness. God have mercy on them.

Not gonna lie but it makes it a little difficult to still believe anything they say, when they manage to talk themselves around to touching little bum bums and that being okay.

Stop moralising cultures no-one could even begin to understand in full (due to the distance in time and lack of information on them). Anything can easily be acceptable, cultures don't evaluate themselves on pseudochristian ideals that no one has ever adhered to, to begin with.

This. Without the Bible pedophilia and other forms of degeneracy run rampant.

Socrates points out a higher form of love in contrast to the other guys' speeches though, why is everybody too stupid to understand that Symposium isn't le fucking little boys meme book

Jesus was the first (and, as far as I know, the only) of the great moral teachers of humanity to elevate children as figures of profound moral consideration above and beyond their famial duties. Before Jesus, children were universally regarded as mere chattel property of their parents and extended family. Jesus' teachings regarding children are ultimately the reason why we no longer put children to work in coal mines and such. You should visit a pagan country sometime and see how children are treated.

Considering that ancient Rome was collapsing while converting, and Europe was in chaos during the Middle Ages, and the early modern period was undergoing such upheavals, and none of them had the benefits of steam power to replace child labor, it makes sense that the Victorian Era would be the time when those labor reforms would be made. No one ever said that Christians are indeed perfect in act or can indeed build perfect societies.
