In the middle of the nineteenth century, a stable relationship between American religious organizations and the state was taken for granted. Concord prevailed between the Christian (and largely Protestant) "establishment" on one side and governmental bodies on the other. Here a preeminent scholar of American religious history shows what happened when that settled relationship was tested and challenged. The decades from 1880 to 1920 were marked by an unprecedented influx of immigrants (many of whom were Catholics and Jews), increasing conflicts between public and private school systems, excitement over imperialism, the growth of progressivism in politics, the rise of the social gospel, and the impact of World War I. Providing an overview of how these developments affected church-state relationships, Robert Handy's work is fascinating as a view of this period and as a clue to the tensions in American church-state relations today. Handy shows that the movement from a Protestant America to an explicit pluralism was well under way during these years, even though this change was not clearly recognized at the time it was occurring. Both governmental and religious institutions were transformed, and the difficult process of sorting out ways to relate them has been going on ever since. This book will be an invaluable aid in that task, for students of church-state relations and for a broader readership concerned with American culture in general. Originally published in 1991. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Hellenism is the living culture of the Greek-speaking peoples and has a continuing history of more than 3,500 years. The Encyclopedia of Greece and the Hellenic Tradition contains approximately 900 entries devoted to people, places, periods, events, and themes, examining every aspect of that culture from the Bronze Age to the present day. The focus throughout is on the Greeks themselves, and the continuities within their own cultural tradition. Language and religion are perhaps the most obvious vehicles of continuity; but there have been many others--law, taxation, gardens, music, magic, education, shipping, and countless other elements have all played their part in maintaining this unique culture. Today, Greek arts have blossomed again; Greece has taken its place in the European Union; Greeks control a substantial proportion of the world's merchant marine; and Greek communities in the United States, Australia, and South Africa have carried the Hellenic tradition throughout the world. This is the first reference work to embrace all aspects of that tradition in every period of its existence.

What If There Were Another Valid Catholic Church? What If That Other Catholic Church Was More In Line With What You Believe? What if there were a valid Catholic Church that allowed priests to marry, where divorce was not treated like an unforgiveable sin, where birth control and contraception were regarded as a personal decision and a matter of individual conscience, where divorced and remarried individuals were still allowed access to the Sacraments, where EVERY baptized individual were welcomed to receive the Eucharist, a Catholic Church that was "open and affirming," where women were ordained as deacons, priests, and bishops, and where you were welcomed just as you are, regardless of who you are? What if such a Catholic Church existed? Would you be interested? Would you like to know more about it? Most American Catholics Believe That: - Priest should marry - Birth Control is a personal decision - Divorce is NOT an unforgiveable sin - Women should be ordained - They deserve a Catholic Church that believes these things too! Such a Catholic Church Does Indeed Exist! It is The Old Catholic Church! The Old Catholic Church has maintained valid Apostolic Succession, administers valid Sacraments, and is guided by Holy Tradition and Holy Scripture "" a church that is not Protestant or a "break away" church, but is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT CATHOLIC in its tradition, practice, and theology? Even The Roman Catholic Church Admits That The Old Catholic Church Is Valid. The Roman Catholic Church agrees that the ministry and Sacraments of The Old Catholic Church are valid. The Old Catholic Church has maintained valid Apostolic Succession and uses Roman liturgy. In fact, The Roman Catholic Church and The Old Catholic Church are nearly identical in much of their tradition, worship, and doctrine. There are only two doctrinal differences that separate them. Every American Catholic Needs To Learn About The Old Catholic Church. Father R. Joseph Owles presents a basic introduction to The Old Catholic Church. In its pages he explains what the Old Catholic Church is, where it comes from, what it believes, and how to learn more about it. This introduction is concise, but full of useful information. This book is useful for Roman Catholics who are dismayed at the rate of progress and change in their church, Roman Catholics who may be divorced and feel excluded from their church and its Sacraments, or anyone interested in Church History and learning about a Fully Catholic alternative to the Roman Catholic Church.

"The non-Orthodox Western European finds it most difficult to comprehend the Eastern Orthodox Church because he knows little about the life and doctrines of Orthodoxy and even this little is overlaid by many strata of prejudices and misunderstandings, partly religious, partly political in nature. One of the stumbling blocks has been our natural tendency to confound the ideas and customs of the Orthodox Church with familiar parallels in Roman Catholicism." The author counteracts the confusion, explaining the liturgy and sacraments, dogma, constitution and law of Eastern Orthodoxy. In a brief history, he describes the rise of Orthodox national Churches, schismatic Churches and Churches in exile; the role of monasticism--and its striking differences from Roman Catholic monasticism; the missionary work of the Orthodox Church; and the influence of Orthodoxy on politics and culture.

Torgerson begins by discussing God's transcendence and immanence and showing how church architecture has traditionally interpreted these key concepts. He then traces the theological roots of immanence's priority from liberal theology and liturgical innovation to modern architecture. Next, Torgerson illustrates this new architecture of immanence through particular practitioners, focusing especially on the work of theologically savvy architect Edward Anders Sövik. Finally, he addresses the future of church architecture as congregations are buffeted by the twin forces of liturgical change and postmodernism.

"How can you believe all this stuff? This is the number-one question Catholics get asked and, sometimes, we ask ourselves. Why do we believe that God exists, that he became a man and came to save us, that what looks like a wafer of bread is actually his body? Why do we believe that he inspired a holy book and founded an infallible Church to teach us the one true way to live? Ever since he became Catholic, Trent Horn has spent a lot of time answering these questions, trying to explain to friends, family, and total strangers the reasons for his Catholic faith. Some didn't believe in God, or even in the existence of truth. Others said they were spiritual but didn't think you needed religion to be happy. Some were Christians who thought Catholic doctrines over-complicated the pure gospel. And some were fellow Catholics who had a hard time understanding everything they professed to believe on Sunday. Why We're Catholic assembles the clearest, friendliest, most helpful answers that Trent learned to give to all these people and more. Beginning with how we can know reality and ending with our hope of eternal life, it s the perfect way to help skeptics and seekers (or Catholics who want to firm up their faith) understand the evidence that bolsters our belief and brings us joy" --
