Progressive Religious Thought in America: A Survey of the Enlarging Pilgrim Faith is a book written by John Wright Buckham and first published in 1919. The book is a comprehensive survey of the development of progressive religious thought in America during the early 20th century. Buckham, a theologian and professor of systematic theology at Pacific School of Religion, examines the evolution of religious beliefs in America in the context of the changing social, political, and economic landscape of the country.The book covers a wide range of topics, including the influence of science on religious thought, the rise of social gospel movements, the impact of World War I on religious beliefs, and the emergence of new religious movements. Buckham explores the ideas of prominent religious thinkers such as Walter Rauschenbusch, Harry Emerson Fosdick, and Reinhold Niebuhr, and analyzes their contributions to the development of progressive religious thought.Buckham argues that progressive religious thought in America was characterized by a willingness to engage with the challenges of the modern world, a commitment to social justice and reform, and a belief in the power of human reason and intellect. He also notes the importance of religious pluralism and tolerance in the development of progressive religious thought.Overall, Progressive Religious Thought in America is an important historical document that provides insight into the evolution of religious beliefs in America during a time of significant social and cultural change. The book remains relevant today as a testament to the ongoing dialogue between faith and reason, and the importance of progressive values in shaping the future of religious thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
