Patriotism and Religion is a non-fiction book written by Shailer Mathews, an American theologian and educator. The book explores the relationship between patriotism and religion, and how they have been intertwined throughout American history. Mathews argues that religion has played a significant role in shaping American patriotism, and that patriotism can be seen as a form of religious devotion.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the history of patriotism and religion in America, including the role of religion in the American Revolution and the Civil War. The second part examines the relationship between patriotism and religion in the modern era, including the impact of World War I and II on American patriotism. The third and final part of the book looks at the challenges facing patriotism and religion in contemporary America, including the rise of secularism and the changing nature of American identity.Throughout the book, Mathews draws on a wide range of sources, including historical documents, religious texts, and contemporary scholarship. He argues that patriotism and religion are not separate spheres of life, but are deeply intertwined, and that a healthy patriotism requires a strong religious foundation.Overall, Patriotism and Religion is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the relationship between two of America's most important values. It is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the role of religion in American life, and the challenges facing American patriotism in the 21st century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
