Just as Roman law was preserved by the Church (and still is), the long 19th century principles of rights, sovereignty, romantic cultural pluralism, and rational economic development will be preserved under the Catholic canopy amid a new era of barbarian kings.
Fukuyama may smile at such an upshot, but he should remember that just as Romanitas and Hellenism were changed by baptism, just so the modern package will be transformed by being incased in a sacerdotal and sacramental Eastern mystery religion centering on the crucified Galilean.
