Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theology of Civilization IN 1897 I published a little book, The Coming People, which received a very kindly and appreciative welcome from many readers. I tried to interpret the movements of modern life, in the only way in which they seem capable of an intelligible under standing, into the terms Of a divine universe. AS one who had begun his thinking as a sceptic and without a hopeful tempera ment, I boldly avowed my most serious and persistent conviction that the world is good and not bad, that life is abundantly worth living, that man is marching the way of a great and beautiful destiny.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Intermediate World But, as if under supernatural inspiration, the human mind, civilization through, is roused, and with intense and prolonged gaze the eye is fixed upon the future. We somewhat suspect that the present drift of thinking is merely preliminary to a new era, in which public attention will turn more and more, though perhaps gradually, to the from which materialism has so long divorced our thoughts. To us it seems that good will come of this new theological drift we therefore contribute our mite. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Civilization of Christendom and Other Studies The careless current usage of such terms as indi vidualistic, socialistic, egoistic, altruistic, is a discredit to the popular theory of an age which professes to be critical. If some of our very able writers of Ethical manuals would give all these expressions a thorough shaking-out before the public, they would do a good deed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pastoral Theology Pastoral Theology, though forming a vital and organic part of the science of Christian Theology, is a theme evasive of analysis and thus somewhat difficult to treat, having regard as it does to relations which are almost wholly spiritual and personal, and whose roots are deep in the affections. As well might one try to construct a philosophy for the economy of a household and the affectionate and moral (the Germans have a better word, relations of parents and children, as to make a science of those fine relations of a Christian pastor to his flock which constitute the most profound and spirit ual of human ties.

Download or read book How the Irish Saved Civilization written by Thomas Cahill and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2010-04-28 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A book in the best tradition of popular history—the untold story of Ireland's role in maintaining Western culture while the Dark Ages settled on Europe. • The perfect St. Patrick's Day gift! Every year millions of Americans celebrate St. Patrick's Day, but they may not be aware of how great an influence St. Patrick was on the subsequent history of civilization. Not only did he bring Christianity to Ireland, he instilled a sense of literacy and learning that would create the conditions that allowed Ireland to become "the isle of saints and scholars"—and thus preserve Western culture while Europe was being overrun by barbarians. In this entertaining and compelling narrative, Thomas Cahill tells the story of how Europe evolved from the classical age of Rome to the medieval era. Without Ireland, the transition could not have taken place. Not only did Irish monks and scribes maintain the very record of Western civilization -- copying manuscripts of Greek and Latin writers, both pagan and Christian, while libraries and learning on the continent were forever lost—they brought their uniquely Irish world-view to the task. As Cahill delightfully illustrates, so much of the liveliness we associate with medieval culture has its roots in Ireland. When the seeds of culture were replanted on the European continent, it was from Ireland that they were germinated. In the tradition of Barbara Tuchman's A Distant Mirror, How The Irish Saved Civilization reconstructs an era that few know about but which is central to understanding our past and our cultural heritage. But it conveys its knowledge with a winking wit that aptly captures the sensibility of the unsung Irish who relaunched civilization.

Download or read book The Book that Made Your World written by Vishal Mangalwadi and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2012-10-24 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understand where we came from. Whether you're an avid student of the Bible or a skeptic of its relevance, The Book That Made Your World will transform your perception of its influence on virtually every facet of Western civilization. Indian philosopher Vishal Mangalwadi reveals the personal motivation that fueled his own study of the Bible and systematically illustrates how its precepts became the framework for societal structure throughout the last millennium. From politics and science, to academia and technology, the Bible's sacred copy became the key that unlocked the Western mind. Through Mangalwadi's wide-ranging and fascinating investigation, you'll discover: What triggered the West's passion for scientific, medical, and technological advancement How the biblical notion of human dignity informs the West's social structure and how it intersects with other worldviews How the Bible created a fertile ground for women to find social and economic empowerment How the Bible has uniquely equipped the West to cultivate compassion, human rights, prosperity, and strong families The role of the Bible in the transformation of education How the modern literary notion of a hero has been shaped by the Bible's archetypal protagonist Journey with Mangalwadi as he examines the origins of a civilization's greatness and the misguided beliefs that threaten to unravel its progress. Learn how the Bible transformed the social, political, and religious institutions that have sustained Western culture for the past millennium, and discover how secular corruption endangers the stability and longevity of Western civilization. Endorsements: “This is an extremely significant piece of work with huge global implications. Vishal brings a timely message.” (Ravi Zacharias, author, Walking from East to West and Beyond Opinion) “In polite society, the mere mention of the Bible often introduces a certain measure of anxiety. A serious discussion on the Bible can bring outright contempt. Therefore, it is most refreshing to encounter this engaging and informed assessment of the Bible’s profound impact on the modern world. Where Bloom laments the closing of the American mind, Mangalwadi brings a refreshing optimism.” (Stanley Mattson, founder and president, C. S. Lewis Foundation) “Vishal Mangalwadi recounts history in very broad strokes, always using his cross-cultural perspectives for highlighting the many benefits of biblical principles in shaping civilization.” (George Marsden, professor, University of Notre Dame; author, Fundamentalism and American Culture)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Survey of Greek Civilization I fear that this separation is being carried out beyond its legitimate or useful degree even in the separation of secular. And religious subjects, of intellectual and moral studies. To take the most signal example: In the Roman Catholic Church it is an avowed principle that theology is the only necessary science for the edu cation oi a priest, that this theology, far from being eu lightened, is likely to be endangered by secular knowl edge. On the other hand, the scientist generally stands aloof from theology, and too often expresses his con tempt for it as a non-progressive science, or if he be of a better moral fibre, and acknowledges the weight and importance of religion, he is ready to accept, as a mere layman, what his pastor or other clerical adviser may teach.

Never attempted to supply this omission his Syllabus of Errors was published long before the Vatican Decrees, and besides, being merely in a negative form, it was not promulgated by him as a whole in the form of an encyclical. He was appar ently content to supply the material - like another David, leaving the construction of the temple to his successor, the Solomon of the Church. The noise less manner in which the latter has carried on his part of the work has concealed it from public atten tion - many would even deny that it had been begun.
