About this ebook

The essays in Modernity and Religion comprise the reflections of eight seminal thinkers on various aspects of the problems of modern thought and its attitude toward religion. By concentrating on the supposed chasms between modern thought and the assumptions of Christianity, the contributors do much more than show that modernity has failed by its own standards; they also demonstrate that there are truths about humans and their relations to others and to God that are necessary components of any epoch, past or present.

Contributors include Louis Dupre, Francois-Xavier Guerra, Peter Koslowski, R. Emmet Kennedy, Jr.,Simon Green, James Hitchcock, Jude Dougherty, and Ernest Fortin.
