Well, the Dark Ages had their Boethius, so even if civilization is dying something may be preserved --and it seems that there may be some people equipped to fill such a role should the need arise. It's not surprising, though, is it, that it is within the confines of the church (and it seems largely the confessional church) that learning endures.
