False.
The Christian church had a major influence on English — it introduced Latin vocabulary (e.g., altar, bishop, priest, gospel, mass, psalm, baptism, saint), brought the Latin alphabet and literacy to Anglo-Saxon England, produced and preserved texts in monasteries (Bede, Anglo‑Saxon Chronicle), and shaped religious and literary vocabulary and styles that carried into Middle and Modern English.
