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...

Download or read book Dominion written by Tom Holland and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A "marvelous" (Economist) account of how the Christian Revolution forged the Western imagination. Crucifixion, the Romans believed, was the worst fate imaginable, a punishment reserved for slaves. How astonishing it was, then, that people should have come to believe that one particular victim of crucifixion-an obscure provincial by the name of Jesus-was to be worshipped as a god. Dominion explores the implications of this shocking conviction as they have reverberated throughout history. Today, the West remains utterly saturated by Christian assumptions. As Tom Holland demonstrates, our morals and ethics are not universal but are instead the fruits of a very distinctive civilization. Concepts such as secularism, liberalism, science, and homosexuality are deeply rooted in a Christian seedbed. From Babylon to the Beatles, Saint Michael to #MeToo, Dominion tells the story of how Christianity transformed the modern world.
