Suicide rates are very high in the most secular, richest countries.

Those suicide rates have nothing to do with them being secular. Japan and Korea both compete for the top spot in the world. Japan is secular, Korea is very Christian. In both cases it is the neo-confusionist culture which drives people to suicide. It has nothing to do with a lack of belief in god(s). Scandinavia is plagued by cold, dark and depressing winters; once again, nothing to do with lack of belief in deities.

Christianity saved Europe from the Dark Ages, and from Muslim rule.

1. Jesus Christ united the people after the fall of the Roman Empire.  Once there was no emperor, no government, no laws, the people were all just killing each other, but Christianity united them and Jesus Christ became their Emperor.

2. Monasteries and monks preserved books, history, reading, writing, and education in general when there were no schools no universities, no academies any longer.  Otherwise, Europe would have sunk even deeper into darkness and ignorance.

3. Christian kings fought and helped keep Muslim invaders out of Western Europe.  Otherwise, we would all be praying to Mecca right now.

4. The Crusades brought Europe out of the Dark Ages.  When the Crusaders came back to Europe, they brought with them medical knowledge, culture, architecture, technology, etc.

This will take longer to refute. I will be back for this later.
