How has The Bible affected the world?

Before Christianity there were no hospitals. The sick were sent to die at home or in leper colony kinds of places. The idea that we are responsible to each other that way, came directly from the Bible. Also Christian missionaries tend to build schools and hospitals.
The idea of human rights also can be traced to the Bible and the idea that God created all men in His image.
 
By "The Bible" I mean the Christian Bible, which contains both The Old and The New Testament. How has it affected our culture and society on a global scale? Please write answers fully and correctly. Thank you!
P.S. I wrote "Write down all answers fully and correctly" because that would weed out trolls. It is very annoying getting spam in my inbox from Answers.yahoo.com when I get an E-mail about a troll who doesn't even answer the question. Thank you to those who aren't trolls!
