Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religion of a Sensible American The writer of this little book was asked by the Editor of "The Hib-bert Journal" to write an article on "the religion of a sensible American," to be the second of a series covering the religious experiences of "sensible" men of different nations, the first being "the religion of a sensible Scotsman." The title assigned seemed to shut out the possibility of a personal confession of faith, even were such a confession acceptable. For that reason and for other reasons the writer chose to set forth the religious belief and work of a friend, no longer living; one who could stand without question as a sensible man, and one whose thought and whose life were typical of the best which we may call American. In reprinting this article as a booklet it has been somewhat extended in length by the inclusion of some matters omitted from the article as printed in "The Hibbert Journal."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authentic Fakes explores the religious dimensions of American popular culture in unexpected places: baseball, the Human Genome Project, Coca-Cola, rock 'n' roll, the rhetoric of Ronald Reagan, the charisma of Jim Jones, Tupperware, and the free market, to name a few. Chidester travels through the cultural landscape and discovers the role that fakery—in the guise of frauds, charlatans, inventions, and simulations—plays in creating religious experience. His book is at once an incisive analysis of the relationship between religion and popular culture and a celebration of the myriad ways in which invention can stimulate the religious imagination. Moving beyond American borders, Chidester considers the religion of McDonald’s and Disney, the discourse of W.E.B. Du Bois and the American movement in Southern Africa, the messianic promise of Nelson Mandela’s 1990 tour to America, and more. He also looks at the creative possibilities of the Internet in such phenomena as Discordianism, the Holy Order of the Cheeseburger, and a range of similar inventions. Arguing throughout that religious fakes can do authentic religious work, and that American popular culture is the space of that creative labor, Chidester looks toward a future "pregnant with the possibilities of new kinds of authenticity."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Religion Some mental method must exist to control all the applications of Thought in morals and religion. Of course it is trite to say there must be method everywhere. The Oneida Community ran to waste year after year for want of method in its trade and farming, till a French Canadian came there with a mouse-trap of his invention, and caught prosperity. No trap had ever before so nicely corresponded to the cunning of surplus mice. Method is simply an adaptation to the facts. The sculptor discovers what form of tool will hollow a knee-joint, and he saves time for the face. Philosophers and theologians grow stiff in that joint because they refuse to walk in Nature's way. But the great discoveries of Newton and Kepler had nothing mysterious: they were the gestures of men without preconceptions to methodize, whose ways were so near to Nature that they kept the rare brains susceptible to organic laws; so that their genius was their health. Method rules the distinction between the literary man and the Bohemian, the scholar and the charlatan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Character of American Revivals of Religion The publication of this little volume may perhaps demand an apology. And it is hoped by the Author, that it may seem as reasonable, as it is simple. Soon after his arrival in London, he received a note from an esteemed and reverend brother, re questing him to deliver a discourse in his chapel on American Revivals. The Author answered the note, that he would take the request under consideration. The demand was altogether unanticipated, the topic delicate, and difficult of treatment before a popular assembly, -but yet interesting, and so far as the Author could learn, im portant in the eyes of British Christians; as the religious public in England were yet in suspense, as to the opinion proper to be entertained on the subject, on account.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religion of a Gentleman Almost since I was a boy it has been the wish of my life that I might be able to make the statement of religion in such a way as to commend the subject and make it attractive to the young. It has been my faith that religion must be capable of the most interesting, persuasive, and reasonable treatment. Religion did not, however, ap peal to me in this W335; fat; On the contrary, in my case, as ois f, tonb't, tau'ef with many to day, the subject Js'eemed some what distant and even Religious teaching has too often made to take on the hue of melancholy and even the shadow of death. It has seemed to threaten not merely to deprive us of pleasure (this might be borne) but also to deprive us of life and activity, and to shut us up in a narrow and spectral region. I early found in myself an instinctive hunger for life here in this world; for all which this life offers; for a large, normal, wholesome, active, satisfying life. The Greek spirit, and not the Puritan only, was in me. I loved reason, order, harmony, and unity. I could not bear to have to make a special plea for my religion, to defend it, to apologize for it, to entertain apprehensions that it might some day be overwhelmed by shrewd questions or by some new scientific or historical discovery. I could not to think of a divided uniycfise ii'i nce and religion were dobi'ned' to live tat-part. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Similar requests have come from members of the Los Angeles Methodist Preachers' Meeting, before whom three of the "Addresses" were read as "A Paper," in January, 1911. By way of illustration, a phrase of current slang expresses the attitude of many people to-day: "Any old thing" will do for a religious belief. "Dowieism," "Tingleyism," "Eddyism," "Spiritualism," or almost anything else seems good enough for multitudes of people. People are after the very best in everything except in Religion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1960 publication of We Hold These Truths marked a significant event in the history of modern American thought. Since that time, Sheed & Ward has kept the book in print and has published several studies of John Courtney Murray's life and work. We are proud to present a new edition of this classic text, which features a comprehensive introduction by Peter Lawler that places Murray in the context of Catholic and American history and thought while revealing his relevance today. From the new Introduction by Peter Lawler: The Jesuit John Courtney Murray (1904-67) was, in his time, probably the best known and most widely respected American Catholic writer on the relationship between Catholic philosophy and theology and his country's political life. The highpoint of his influence was the publication of We Hold These Truths in the same year as an election of our country's first Catholic president. Those two events were celebrated by a Time cover story (December 12, 1960) on Murray's work and influence. The story's author, Protestant Douglas Auchincloss, reported that it was "The most relentlessly intellectual cover story I've done." His amazingly wide ranging and dense--if not altogether accurate--account of Murray's thought was crowned with a smart and pointed conclusion: "If anyone can help U.S. Catholics and their non-Catholic countrymen toward the disagreement that precedes understanding--John Courtney Murray can." . . . Murray's work, of course, is treated with great respect and has had considerable influence, but now it's time to begin to think of him as one of America's very few genuine political philosophers. His disarmingly lucid and accessible prose has caused his book to be widely cited and celebrated, but it still is not well understood. It is both praised and blamed for reconciling Catholic faith with the fundamental premises of American political life. It is praised by liberals for paving the way for Vatican II's embrace of the American idea of religious liberty, and it is

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative reassessment of religion and culture in the early days of the American republic "The so-called Second Great Awakening was the shaping epoch of American Protestantism, and this book is the most important study of it ever published."—James Turner, Journal of Interdisciplinary History Winner of the John Hope Franklin Publication Prize, the Society for Historians of the Early American Republic book prize, and the Albert C. Outler Prize In this provocative reassessment of religion and culture in the early days of the American republic, Nathan O. Hatch argues that during this period American Christianity was democratized and common people became powerful actors on the religious scene. Hatch examines five distinct traditions or mass movements that emerged early in the nineteenth century—the Christian movement, Methodism, the Baptist movement, the black churches, and the Mormons—showing how all offered compelling visions of individual potential and collective aspiration to the unschooled and unsophisticated.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Reasonable Religion: Religio Doctoris Lastly, as to the relations between happiness and Virtue, we are taught that the joys of sense can con tribute very little to happiness. Egoism is good, but only so far as it is intelligent. The power to enjoy grows directly as does capacity for sympathy. Even non-moral pleasures may be made means to moral enjoyment. To be true to our own selves brings a joy that abides, for the welfare of society is only the sum of that of the individuals composing it. The value of a sound education is that it makes for Virtue, and this is the author's melioristic creed. The greatest happi ness for us is not beyond the reach of our power to attain it. Love is the highest, and it teaches us the transcendent beauty of the universe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
