Popery In Alliance With Heathenism (1835)

By John Poynder

Book Overview

Popery In Alliance With Heathenism is a book written by John Poynder in 1835. The book is a critical analysis of the Catholic Church and its perceived alliance with heathen practices. Poynder argues that the Catholic Church has incorporated pagan rituals and beliefs into its teachings and practices, thereby compromising its Christian principles. He cites examples such as the use of holy water, the veneration of saints, and the adoration of the Virgin Mary as evidence of this alliance. Poynder also discusses the influence of pagan religions on the development of Catholicism, particularly in relation to the adoption of the doctrine of transubstantiation. The book is written in a polemical style and reflects the anti-Catholic sentiment prevalent in England during the 19th century. It is considered an important work in the history of Protestant-Catholic relations and provides insight into the religious and political tensions of the time.Letters Proving That Where The Bible Is Wholly Unknown As In The Heathen World, Or Only Partially Known, As In The Romish Church, Idolatry And Superstition Are Inevitable.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
