Through the Second Millennium, the Europeans became the most powerful people of the world in political, economic and military terms, creating a tremendous disequilibrium in progress opportunities. Paradoxically, these Europeans got further apart from their spiritual values. This evolution, accelerated in the last centuries by the amazing technological inventions, had an enormous impact in the Middle East, where oil has simultaneously been a jewel and a tragedy. The western world witnessestoday the advance of the Islamic extremism, represented by groupslike Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State. It is worthy to analyze in retrospective the impact of the Second Millennium in Christianity and Islam to better understand the similarities and differences between these two civilizations
