The War Upon Religion: Being an Account of the Rise and Progress of Anti-Christianism in Europe (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The War Upon Religion: Being an Account of the Rise and Progress of Anti-Christianism in Europe
Scepticism, born of Kant and Hegel, had come to its throne. With Hegel all things were only relative; with Kant objects are only phenomena, and the truth of things is merely subjective; religion itself was to him only subjective, and was, moreover, relegated to the things unknowable. In this he resembled Spencer with whom Religion held the first place in the category of the Unknowable, and that vast, dark, and bottomless pit into which he consigned everything whiclncould not be. Known by experimentation.~ This glorification bf ig norance, elevated into a system, became known as agnosticism.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed account of how the authority of the Catholic Church has been challenged in the past four centuries. It starts from the Reformation, and discusses the rise of Jansenism, Gallicanism, Febronianism, and Josephinism. The author argues that all these movements have had one thing in common: they have sought to undermine the authority of the papacy. The book also discusses the role of the Holy See in combating these movements, and the ways in which the papacy has emerged stronger from each challenge. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of the Catholic Church, and for anyone who wants to understand the challenges that the Church faces today.
