Book Synopsis How Christianity Saved Civilization by : Mike Aquilina
Download or read book How Christianity Saved Civilization written by Mike Aquilina and published by Sophia Institute Press. This book was released on 2019-01-10 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ancient Rome’s brutal culture exploited the weak and considered human life expendable. Women were used as property; unwanted children were left on the streets to die. Four centuries later, even ordinary men and women prospered in what had become a vigorous new Christian society – a society that served the vulnerable, exalted women, treasured virtue, and loved peace. Faith had triumphed. Truth was proclaimed. And on this rock-solid foundation, Christian society flourished in the West for the next 1500 years. These eye-opening pages document the many ways in which Christians penetrated and civilized that debased Roman empire, introducing then-radical notions such as the equal dignity of women, respect for life, protection of the weak and vulnerable, and the obligation of rulers to serve those they rule and maximize their freedom. Here you’ll learn about the seven specific areas where any paganism, ancient or modern, is particularly vulnerable. They provide a roadmap for modern Christians to reclaim for the Faith our own neo-pagan modern culture. Facing an overwhelmingly dark and hostile culture, Rome’s early Christians took the steps necessary to transform it. Their struggles and the hard lessons they learned – documented here – afford us hope that, by imitating their example, we may do the same for our culture today.

How evident it is that the subversion of the Roman, to which the darkness of the middle ages was so largely due, was encouraged by the policy, if not sometimes aided, by the direct efforts of the Christian Church. The asceticism which I have mentioned was frequently followed by the opposite extreme, and the greatest licentiousness prevailed. Love feasts became scenes of drunkenness and debauchery, and as such were kept #up for centuries. Commemoration of martyrs became scenes of scandalous dissipation. Thousands of the clergy while professing celibacy kept mistresses in their houses under all sorts of false but pious pretexts. Monks and virgins lived together on terms of closest intimacy, hypocritically claiming that so great was their piety that they could innocently share the same bed. Women deserted their husbands to live with new lovers. Open prostitution was common. "The world," says Hallam, "grew accustomed to dangerous alternations of extreme asceticism and gross vice, and sometimes as in the case of Antioch, it was the most vicious and luxurious cities that produced the most numerous anchorites.... Public opinion was so low that many forms of vice attracted little condemnation and punishment, while undoubted belief in the absolving efficacy of superstitious rights calmed the imagination and allayed the terrors of conscience" (Middle Ages, p. 163). An Italian bishop of the tenth century said if he were to enforce the canons against unchaste people administering the rites of the Church, that duty would be reserved for boys alone; and if he were to extend the canons against bastards, they too would be excluded. At one time the clergy almost universally kept concubines and were systematically taxed therefor. One abbot was...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christianity and Modern Civilization: Being Some Chapters in European History, With an Introductory Dialogue on the Philosophy of History In 1886 the Author published a work in two volumes entitled Chapters in European History. It has long been out of print, and, for several reasons, he has not seen well to republish it in its original form. In this book a considerable portion of it finds place: viz. the Chapters on The Christian Revolution, The Turning-point of the Middle Ages, and The Age of Faith - all being more or less rewritten - as well as the Introductory Dialogue on the Philosophy of History. The Chapters on The Nascent Church, The Inquisition, and Holy Matrimony have been reclaimed, by the kind permission of Mr. James Knowles, from the Nineteenth Century, where they originally appeared, and have received various alterations and additions. The Chapter on The Age of the Martyrs, with the exception of a few pages, is now published for the first time. The Dedicatory Letter prefixed to the original work is retained, in an abridged form, as a tribute of gratitude and affection to a friend now no more.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1907 edition. Excerpt: ... 1 CHAPTER Vn WHAT TO DO We rest our case. We have seen that in the prophetic religion of the Old Testament and in the aims of Jesus Christ the reconstruction of the whole of human life in accordance with the will of God and under the motive power of religion was the ruling purpose. Primitive Christianity, while under the fresh impulse of Jesus, was filled with social forces. In its later history the reconstructive capacities of Christianity were paralyzed by alien influences, but through the evolution of the Christian spirit in the Church it has now arrived at a stage in its development where it is fit and free for its largest social mission. At the same time Christian civilization has arrived at the great crisis of its history and is in the most urgent need of all moral power to overcome the wrongs which have throttled other nations and civilizations. The Church, too, has its own power and future at stake in the issues of social development. Thus the will of God revealed in Christ and in the highest manifestations of the religious spirit, the call of human duty, and the motives of self-protection, alike summon Christian men singly and collectively to put their hands to the plough and not to look back till public morality shall be at least as much Christianized as private morality now is. The question then immediately confronts us: What social changes would be involved in such a religious reorganization of life? What institutions and practices of our present life would have to cease? What new elements would have to be embodied? What social ideal should be the ultimate aim of Christian men, and what practical means and policies should they use for its attainment? These questions exceed the scope of this book. This closing chapter will...
