		The decline of literate culture, the arts and sciences, and organized education, compared to what flourished during the Roman Empire, and the fact that Christianity, perceived by many Enlightenment intellectuals as a primitive, irrational belief system became the prevailing culture and institutional form during the period, led to the categorization "Dark Ages."
