Answer:

Yes, Church officials were better at running things than the Roman Politicians

Step-by-step explanation:

After the fall of the Roman Empire, Church officials were better at running things than the Roman politicians were,

The Church has always been a major source of social services such as schooling and medical care; an inspiration for art, and also culture and philosophy; and an powerful player in areas such as politics and religion.

The Church rose to replace the Roman Empire as the unifying force in Europe during the middle ages, and some of the development or positive changes brought by the church are as follows:

1) Many of Europe's universities were established by the church at that time.

2) The Rebirth masterpieces which was made by Catholic artists like Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael remain among the most celebrated and recognize works of art ever produced.

3) Christianity played a major role in putting an end to practices such as polygamy human sacrifice, infanticide among others.
