Religio Modesta: Or A Sigh For Peace (1874)

By Jam Senior

Book Overview

es. Religio Modesta: Or A Sigh For Peace is a book written by James Senior in 1874. The book is a reflection on the state of religion and society in the 19th century. Senior argues that there is a need for a more moderate and peaceful approach to religion, one that avoids the extremes of fanaticism and skepticism. He suggests that a ""modest religion"" is one that is grounded in reason and humility, and that seeks to promote peace and harmony among people of different faiths. The book also includes a critique of the prevailing attitudes towards science and religion, and argues that the two are not mutually exclusive. Senior's writing is thoughtful and reflective, and his ideas are still relevant today. Religio Modesta: Or A Sigh For Peace is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion and society in the 19th century, and for those seeking a more moderate and peaceful approach to religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
