How did Christianity survive after The Black Plague?
The Bubonic Plague also known as the Black Death was the deadliest plague known to man. There was no known cure for the spreading disease. The plague took many live across the Middle East. Also, the Jews were affected greatly because of this Black Death. Jews were wrongly blamed for the plague for many reasons. This was very believeable because the Jews did not have as many deaths as everyone else. Several factors contributed to the distribution of the infection. Garbage was ubiquitous in European cities and rodents naturally congregate in these places. It spread throughout cities and eventually to the country. Family members often abandoned each other, death of civil authorities meant no law enforcement in some areas, monks and nuns left monasteries and convents– thus no one was present to give Christian burials and dead bodies were frequently discarded in empty houses. A count of their deaths would be guess-work.
