Publisher's Synopsis
Popery and Infidelity is a book written by James Douglas in 1852. The book is a critical analysis of the relationship between the Roman Catholic Church and the rise of infidelity in Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries. Douglas argues that the Catholic Church's strict adherence to dogma and its resistance to scientific and philosophical advancements led to a decline in the church's influence and authority. He also examines the role of the French Revolution in promoting infidelity and how the Catholic Church responded to this challenge. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion and its impact on society. Overall, Popery and Infidelity is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the complex relationship between religion and secularism in Europe during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
