The Western self and its deformations

Christianity created the Western self. Is the modern, liberated, self-worshipping self therefore the fault of Christianity? (See “Have we become a society of Randians?”) Do we blame the self-degradation and self-demonization of the self, on the self? (See “Americans are turning their bodies into representations of hell”).
