Episode: 129 Losing Faith (Five Hundred 13)
Description: This lecture covers the two main types of criticisms leveled against Christianity during the Enlightenment period: biblical and philosophical. In addition you’ll see how some Christians dug their heals in and worked hard to defend their faith while others gave ground but reinterpreted Christianity in a way that would not only survive the criticisms but also attract “cultured despisers.” We’ll conclude with a brief sketch of unitarianism in America.
This is lecture 13 of a history of Christianity class called Five Hundred: From Martin Luther to Joel Osteen.
