The Roman Catholic Church And The Lures Of Sex; The Beginnings Of Modern Civilization, Industry, Commerce, Foreign Trade, Finance And Banking; And How The Power Of Catholicism Was Undermined - Harry Elmer Barnes - Bog

The book ""The Roman Catholic Church and the Lures of Sex"" by Harry Elmer Barnes explores the history of the Roman Catholic Church's influence on various aspects of modern civilization, including industry, commerce, foreign trade, finance, and banking. The author argues that the Church's strict moral code, particularly regarding sexuality, hindered these areas of development in the early stages of modern civilization. However, over time, the power of Catholicism was undermined by various factors, including the rise of Protestantism, the Enlightenment, and the emergence of secularism. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the complex relationship between the Roman Catholic Church and modern civilization, shedding light on the ways in which religion has shaped the course of human history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
