The dark Middle Ages shrouded in the shadow of theology

Christianity's view of man is that Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, proving that the flesh is the kingdom of sin. God expelled the first ancestors of mankind from the Garden of Eden and punished them to toil all their lives in a land full of thorns and thorns. There is no happiness in the world. Only by suppressing one's lust and joy, repenting of mistakes, and going through the painful journey of life can one get close to God and gain eternal happiness. In short, people themselves are despicable and should live passively and put everything in the afterlife.
