Since the early 1900’s, the church, some due to the events in the outside world, made mistakes while growing into the church it is today.

The philosophers and theologians of the Middle Ages were aware of the limits of their Western European geography. Possessed with the knowledge of other countries and empires, but unable to actually travel there, these thinkers were tormented by their lack of information.
