Popery and Infidelity is a book written by James Douglas and published in 1852. The book is a critique of both the Catholic Church and the rise of secularism in Europe during the 19th century. Douglas argues that the Catholic Church is a corrupt institution that has strayed from its original teachings and has become more concerned with accumulating wealth and power than with serving its followers. He also criticizes the Church for its supposed intolerance of other religions and its persecution of those who do not adhere to its teachings.In addition to his critique of the Catholic Church, Douglas also takes aim at the rise of secularism in Europe. He argues that the rejection of religious faith in favor of reason and science has led to a moral and intellectual decline in European society. He sees the Enlightenment and the French Revolution as particularly damaging to traditional values and argues that the rejection of religion has led to a rise in immorality and social unrest.Despite its strong criticisms of both the Catholic Church and secularism, Popery and Infidelity is also a call to action. Douglas argues that the only way to combat these forces is through a renewed commitment to traditional religious values and a rejection of the materialism and skepticism of modern society. The book is a passionate defense of traditional Christianity and a warning against the dangers of both religious and secular extremism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
