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.

Excerpt from The War Upon Religion: Being an Account of the Rise and Progress of Anti-Christianism in Europe
If it is true that a nation is what its doctrines are, it becomes very easy to discover in the doctrines of contemporary Europe the last reason of the troubles and revolutions which keep it in constant turmoil. It has sowed the wind, now it is reaping the whirlwind. It has destroyed the foundations, and it is but natural that the edifice should begin to fall to its ruin.
The English Socinians, followed by Voltaire, uprooted the Christian idea, and Rousseau after denying the true nature of God, set up the worship of man in His place. From these ancestors was born a generation of rationalists and atheists, who celebrated their triumphs, first in the French Revolution, and afterwards in the general dissolution of organized society. Out of the jumble of confused systems arose all those philosophic, religious, moral, and social aberrations which strive to root themselves in the human mind of the twentieth century. Among the Catholics themselves, whenever ambition or the malign influence of worldly allurements were in the ascendant, there were here and there excrescences of error which tended to diminish the vigor and integrity of the Christian spirit, and lead to that mongrel condition characterized under the name of "Liberal Catholicism."
Rationalism, properly speaking, began in Germany, a country which, until lately, has effected little in the domain of thought, and in the fields of faith and reason, except to ravage and destroy the creations of centuries.

Paperback. Condición: 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. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
