Ernest Cline has written 3 books that deserve it. Ready Player One, Armada, and Ready Player Two. I don't give a shit about most bad books like 50 Shades of Grey or whatever it's popular to rip on now, but Ernest Cline really activates my almonds.

There would be no Islam or Christianity without Plato. At the very least they would have died out

[Anonymous No.17528726]

>>17528563
Same way all other religions died out across the world without Plato?

[Anonymous No.17528811]

>>17528726
No plato means no neoplatonists. No neoplatonists means no church fathers, no gnostics. Islam took off significantly when they warred with Christians. Without Plato none of that would have happen
