Strayer, Chapter 16 (pp.477-488)

While Europeans were trying to continue to spread christianity, a new take on religion came about, called Europe's Scientific Revolution.  By the twentieth century, science had spread through European culture and became the symbol of global modernity.  Many scholars and people all over the world had questions about why it started in Europe instead of in China where they would have been able to discover such thing.  The reason it started in Europe was because of the vast majority of scholar in Europe, therefore, most of the major figures in Scientific Revolution had been trained and had education.  By spreading the word about Scientific Revolution, a group of scholars made books and printed them in the press.  there is still tension until today about the spread Scientific Revolution and Christianity.
