Download or read book Reason Faith and the Struggle for Western Civilization written by Samuel Gregg and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-06-25 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Gregg's book is the closet thing I've encountered in a long time to a one-volume user's manual for operating Western Civilization." —The Stream "Reason, Faith, and the Struggle for Western Civilization offers a concise intellectual history of the West through the prism of the relationship between faith and reason." —Free Beacon The genius of Western civilization is its unique synthesis of reason and faith. But today that synthesis is under attack—from the East by radical Islam (faith without reason) and from within the West itself by aggressive secularism (reason without faith). The stakes are incalculably high. The naïve and increasingly common assumption that reason and faith are incompatible is simply at odds with the facts of history. The revelation in the Hebrew Scriptures of a reasonable Creator imbued Judaism and Christianity with a conviction that the world is intelligible, leading to the flowering of reason and the invention of science in the West. It was no accident that the Enlightenment took place in the culture formed by the Jewish and Christian faiths. We can all see that faith without reason is benighted at best, fanatical and violent at worst. But too many forget that reason, stripped of faith, is subject to its own pathologies. A supposedly autonomous reason easily sinks into fanaticism, stifling dissent as bigoted and irrational and devouring the humane civilization fostered by the integration of reason and faith. The blood-soaked history of the twentieth century attests to the totalitarian forces unleashed by corrupted reason. But Samuel Gregg does more than lament the intellectual and spiritual ruin caused by the divorce of reason and faith. He shows that each of these foundational principles corrects the other’s excesses and enhances our comprehension of the truth in a continuous renewal of civilization. By recovering this balance, we can avoid a suicidal winner-take-all conflict between reason and faith and a future that will respect neither.

Download or read book The Foregleams of Christianity written by Charles Newton Scott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-14 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foregleams of Christianity: An Essay on the Religious History of Antiquity 'We have gone a long way since Maurice delivered his Boyle Lectures, and Mr. Scott has kept his eye persistently on the masters who have spoken since,'... 'This essay in its revised edition will take its place in the great and fascinating course of study that lies before us - the study of comparative religions.' - Expository Times, May, 1893. 'We have every confidence in recommending Mr. Scott's new edition to our readers.' - Religious Review of Reviews, October 14, 1893 'The book shows wonderful industry and collection of authorities, with an ingenious arrangement of the elements of the various religious systems, but whilst the great leading results may be acceptable as being (probably) commonly agreed on, one stands in doubt of "the sacerdotal organization of which the type has been most perfectly realized in the apostolical succession."' - Presbyterian, October 20, 1893. 'Certainly Mr Scott deserves thanks for having continued his able and suggestive work.' - Glasgow Herald, January 26, 1893. 'Some excellent remarks on the acceptance of polytheism by such races as the Greek may be found in Foregleams of Christianity,' - Herbert H. Jeaffreson, The Church of The Living God. 'Un savant anglais, W. Scott, en un livre que je regrette de ne pas voir traduit dans notre langue, Foregleams of Christianity, excelle a mettre en lumiere la vérite de toutes les erreurs, la legitimité de tous les systemes, faux par ce qu'ils nient, vrais par ce qu'ils affirment.' - Joseph Serre, La Religion De Desprit Large. Opinions of the Press on the First Edition. 'The appearance of such an essay, written from the orthodox side, by one who is no less fearless than true, augurs well for the future defenders of the Faith, and amply proves that really Catholic minds can be more liberal and broadly sympathetic than those whose boasted toleration has very awkward and narrow limits.'... In order to encourage our readers to procure the essay and study it with the attention it deserves, we just note the subjects of the chapters.'... 'For English readers we know of no better guide to the subject with which it deals, and venture to hope that the author may be induced to follow up a line of study for which he is so well prepared.' - Church Times, December 27, 1878. 'To Mr C. N. Scott's "Foregleams of Christianity" must be assigned an important place among the semi-theological publications of the present season.'... 'Mr Scott's method may be heartily commended.

Download or read book When I Was a Child I Read Books written by Marilynne Robinson and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2012-03-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marilynne Robinson has built a sterling reputation as a writer of sharp, subtly moving prose, not only as a major American novelist, but also as a rigorous thinker and incisive essayist. In When I Was a Child I Read Books she returns to and expands upon the themes which have preoccupied her work with renewed vigor. In "Austerity as Ideology," she tackles the global debt crisis, and the charged political and social political climate in this country that makes finding a solution to our financial troubles so challenging. In "Open Thy Hand Wide" she searches out the deeply embedded role of generosity in Christian faith. And in "When I Was a Child," one of her most personal essays to date, an account of her childhood in Idaho becomes an exploration of individualism and the myth of the American West. Clear-eyed and forceful as ever, Robinson demonstrates once again why she is regarded as one of our essential writers.
