A "Bunker Hill" Contest, A. D. 1826 (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book dramatically exposes the reality of religious persecution during the so-called 'Revival' which swept through Central New York State in the 1820s. The text begins by explaining how the orthodox clergy stoked the fires of fear against Unitarians and other anti-Calvinist denominations, accusing them of undermining Christianity. Subsequently, these accusations metastasized into attempts to render Calvinism the dominant religious ideology within the state, culminating in the formation of religious societies that centered around the collection of vast sums of capital and the production of religious propaganda such as tracts. These tracts and the religious societies that birthed them had the effect of marginalizing those who held differing religious views while simultaneously attempting to establish a religious orthodoxy that would be propped up by state power. Overall, this book is a chilling reminder of the dangers of religious extremism and the importance of freedom of conscience. It demonstrates that religious persecution is not a relic of the past, but a potential threat whenever religious extremism intersects with state power.
