Answer:
The church did save the knowledge of ancient times, and this allowed it to take a dominant position in the society of the middle ages. But this only occured centuries after, in the 10th century. Before that, it was used by rulers (They were chistians but with a simple faith. They were not interested in theological or moral problems), and hence inferior to political power. But it then became aware of its power because political power depended entirely on the administration and the knowledge of the church. Hence, the zenith of the church political influence was the period between the 11th and the 13th century.
