【正确答案】 The topic of my presentation today is " The Role of Christianity in the Development of Western Democratic Politics".

Though the Christian doctrines, as official ideology, are not revolutionary on the whole, some of them advocating equality and the rule of law still managed to play a positive role. These doctrines, after being reformed and utilized by democratic revolutionar-ists, were conducive to encouraging people to overthrow feudal tyranny and guard their liberty.

The differences in religion and political culture among western countries also correlated with their cause of democracy.
