Synopsis
Christianity by S. Baring-Gould presents a philosophical-theological exploration within The Origin and Development of Religious Belief, Part II. The work argues that humanity harbors universal antinomies—between faith and reason, truth and error, and between individual liberty and social authority—and seeks a synthesis through the Incarnation, the Word made flesh. Employing a Hegelian method, the author contends that no truth is absolute in isolation, but that all truths may be reconciled by a unifying center that unites the finite and infinite in a single framework. The volume defends Catholicism as the religion of inclusion, aiming to harmonize reason and faith, while critiquing Protestant emphases on private judgment and negation. It emphasizes Christianity’s social dimension—the Church as the living body of Christ, the sacraments as means of grace, and the rights of persons within community. Development follows doctrine, art, and civilization, all evolving under the Incarnation’s governing synthesis, shaping not only belief but the structure of society and culture.
