You don’t want to know what the elite of society today would do without modern technology or modern knowledge of the human body.That your statistics mean nothing.Which proves what???...smh.Illiterate Europeans back then had a much better grasp of their mother tongue than today’s westerners.The Reformation dawned on European societies where literacy was restricted. At the end of the Middle Ages, the ability to write was restricted to less than 10% of men and hardly any women possessed it. This fundamental division between the sexes persisted for centuries and throughout the early modern period male achievements almost always overshadowed those by women. For example, one bridegroom in three could not sign Amsterdam’s marriage register in 1630 compared with two-thirds of brides. Until the eighteenth century the rate of improvement for men generally exceeded that for women, so that the gap between the sexes seldom narrowed. Amsterdam brides and grooms both saw illiteracy fall between 1680 and 1780: males from 30% illiteracy to 15% and females from 56% to 36%.14 The literacy of townspeople also grew more quickly than that of rural dwellers and the wealthier merchants and professionals inhabited city centres where concentrations of reading and writing ability were especially high, distinguishing them even from suburban dwellers. By the mid-eighteenth century London and Paris had literacy levels of over 90%, which would not be achieved nationally until the late nineteenth century.
For much of it's history, Europe was an illiterate country. Your notion that whites were sitting in universities and composing novels is just another example of your historical ignorance.
People from that time frame could run circles around the “elite” of today.
And I'm quite sure you'd love to visit the doctor for your annual bloodletting.

Hell, some idiots today believe they could survive indefinite global warming simply because they have more melanin. Some idiots today believe they have psychic powers because of their “third eye”.
