Christian Africa is still as shit as Muslim Africa. I'd argue prideful, nationalist whtes are more likely to succeed than any factor pertaining to Christianity or Catholicism.
You must not know much about Christian Africa. You should look into the eye witness accounts of the Holy Ghost Fathers such as Archbishop Lefebvre and what they perceived occurring in the African people after receiving Baptism. If baptized Africans were given the same amount of time to civilize as Christian Europe had, they would be unrecognizable from what they are now -- just as modern Europeans are unrecognizable from their pre-Baptismal predecessors.
Yes, there were pre-Christian European civilizations. There were pre-Christian African civilizations too. Architecture and plumbing does not a civilization make - morality does, and it is Christianity that cured Europe of its pagan traditions, such as usury, slavery, and sexual immorality. It was Christian Europe that allowed the founding of hospitals and real schools, or a real intellectual tradition, of mobilized labour and real societal morality in conformity with natural law. Only ignorance of history enables one to dismiss the invaluable role Christianity has played for civilization in general.

Genetics proves otherwise. Most traits are around 0.5 heritability, and intelligence becomes 0.75-0.82 heritable by age 24. Political and ideological inclinations are also significantly heritable, at around 0.5. In fact, there is currently a search to find any trait that ISN'T significantly affected by genes. But on top of this, we know the averages vary by race, and of the specific genes that have been isolated pertaining to aggression, delay of gratification, intelligence, height, BMI, you name it, they all vary by race to a significant degree. No amount of education or faith is going to change what is coded into our very flesh, and it is arrogance of the highest degree to think that we are somehow "above" the biological reality of human nature.
