The thing is, I don’t believe we get to call them ‘near-savages’, since we’ve got guys like Erick Erickson. They were trying to figure out the universe and getting it mostly wrong, but a little right too. Erickson can’t even get his biblical knowledge right— as pointed out above, Soddom and Gommorah were destroyed for being cruel, inhospitable, and uncharitable towards the poor.
