Synopsis:

A provocative examination of how debates over education and religion shaped American schools and liberty in a tense era.

This edition examines how concerns about Romanism were linked to public education, politics, and culture. It presents the arguments used to defend the nation’s public schools and to warn against perceived threats to religious and civic freedom, while highlighting the rhetoric and ideas circulating at the time.

Explore the claim that public schools serve as a barrier against foreign influence and the rise of a state church.
See how education, ritualism, and church–state relations are portrayed as forces shaping American liberty.
Understand the critique of Catholic institutions, sectarian schools, and political lobbying in this historical debate.
Learn how authors framed Catholic influence and Protestant identity in the national conversation.

Ideal for readers of American religious history and readers seeking context on education and church–state issues in the United States.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This groundbreaking work examines the nature of the Catholic Church and its doctrines, considering central tenets such as the infallibility of the Pope and the nature of the eucharist. The author approaches these subjects from a Protestant perspective, arguing that Roman Catholicism has distorted the original teachings of Christ. He draws upon a rich knowledge of Church history and the writings of the Church Fathers to assemble an overview of beliefs and practices that he characterizes as antithetical to true Christianity. The text is generously footnoted and includes quotations from many official Catholic sources. This well-researched book will appeal to laypeople and scholars alike, especially those interested in the fraught relationship between Catholicism and Protestantism. It offers a fresh perspective on the subject of the Catholic Church, providing a robust examination of its history and teachings, and is poised to raise questions and provoke discussion among readers. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330623008_0
