Carl Sagan explains in Demon Haunted World that after the victory of Christianity and the fall of Rome:
While medicine in the Islamic world flourished, what followed in Europe was truly a dark age. Much knowledge of anatomy and surgery was lost. Reliance on prayer and miraculous healing abounded. Secular physicians became extinct. Chants, potions, horoscopes and amulets were widely used. Dissections of cadavers were restricted or outlawed, so those who practised medicine were prevented from acquiring first hand knowledge of the human body. Medical research came to a standstill.
