08. Influence by Reasons

It was the age of reason that change the worldview of  that time. It was the time of science and technology whereby the spreading of classical books are ever written. The publication of the Scripture was easily spreading because of printing press. It was also the time when the revolutionary discovery of Galileo change the Church concept of the world. It not only that, but it was the time when the enlightenment was pop up, and the it was the time of the greatest philosophers such as Kant, Kierkegaard and Russell. Thus skepticism was come.

 Some theologians are influence by these people. Their philosophical interpretation was somewhat based on their philosophy. These men was the first best known for Biblical critiques. And sadly, our modern and postmodern thought was influence by these guys. If we don’t recognized it, we can be so sure that the foundation of the modern Atheism is based on this time. Paul warn us to be careful from these empty word philosophy.

 For me, this time was the starting point of the modern doctrine and the struggles between Faith and reason. I must be very careful from the sting of this philosophy.
