Oftentimes, when we look for evidence for the transformative power of Christianity, we look to material things. In terms of how Christianity was the foundation for the Common Law, we look for those laws that seem most inspired by Christian revelation or we look for those jurists who were most known for their Christin faith. The difficulty is, that so much of Christian transformation is internal to the reality being transformed. The effects of our faith are not always as close to the surface as we would like them. This is why the world can sometimes convince us that Christianity was only a marginal actor in shaping Western civilisation. The problem is, Christianity is not an actor in Western Civilisation- it is the whole play and the playhouse in which it is set.
