Synopsis
Excerpt from The Two Christmas Celebrations, A. D. I. And MDCCCLV: A Christmas Story for MDDCCLVI
The same thing happens with the clothes, the tools, and the laws of all advancing nations. The human race is at school, and learns through one book after another, going up to higher and higher studies continually. But at that time cultivated men had outgrown their old forms of religion, - much of the doctrine, many of the ceremonies; and yet they did not quite dare to break away from them, - at least in public. So there was a great deal of pretended belief, and of secret denial of the popular form of religion.

The Two Christmas Celebrations, A. D. I. And MDCCCLV (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 presents two distinct Christmas celebrations, one a modest religious gathering in a humble stable and the other a contemporary event in a lavish setting. The contrast between these two celebrations prompts the author to explore the evolution of religious practices over time. The author traces the historical shift from the simple faith of early Christians, who believed Jesus' teachings emphasized piety and benevolence, to the more complex and elaborate rituals of modern Christianity. The book examines how the original message of Jesus has been interpreted and reinterpreted throughout history, leading to the diverse range of beliefs and practices seen today. Through this comparative analysis, the book sheds light on the complexities of religious traditions and the ways in which they adapt to changing societal norms.
