I'm new to the whole wiki thing but a couple of comments...... wouldn't it be more accurate to refer to Roman Catholicism as being the predominant religion of '''Western''' Medieval Europe? I suspect the people of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire would have been somewhat upset at being called '''Roman''' Catholics, particularly after the schism, even though they did consider themselves Romans and the heirs to the classical Roman Empire.
Second comment.....it appears that, in the UK at least, there is a general move amongst historians to drop the word "Medieval" since it's considered to be imprecise and inaccurate and anyway, and no two historians seem to be able to agree when it actually was!
