The New Apologetic - Robert Watts - Bog

The New Apologetic: Or The Downgrade In Criticism, Theology, And Science (1890) is a book written by Robert Watts. The book is a critique of the intellectual and spiritual decline that Watts saw in the late 19th century. He argues that the fields of criticism, theology, and science were all suffering from a ""downgrade"" in their standards of inquiry and analysis. Watts specifically targets the ""higher criticism"" of the Bible, which he sees as a dangerous departure from traditional Christian beliefs. He also criticizes the growing influence of scientific materialism, which he believes undermines the spiritual and moral foundations of society. The book offers a defense of traditional Christian beliefs and argues for a renewed emphasis on the importance of faith and spirituality. Watts draws on his own experiences as a pastor and theologian to make his case, and he provides numerous examples of the negative effects of the ""downgrade"" on individuals and society as a whole. Overall, The New Apologetic is a passionate and thought-provoking work that offers a compelling critique of the intellectual and spiritual trends of its time. It remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian thought and the ongoing debate over the relationship between faith and reason.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
