New Views of Christianity, Society, and the Church

By Orestes Augustus Brownson

Book Overview

""New Views of Christianity, Society and the Church"" is a book written by Orestes Augustus Brownson, an American intellectual and theologian, in the mid-19th century. In this work, Brownson offers a critique of contemporary Christian theology and society, arguing that traditional views of Christianity are inadequate for the modern world. He proposes a new, more inclusive understanding of Christianity that takes into account the social and political realities of the time. Brownson also critiques the role of the Church in society, arguing that it should be more engaged with the world and not simply focused on spiritual matters. The book is considered an important work in the history of American religious thought and continues to be studied by scholars today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
