"The failure of the European Union's Constitutional Treaty has raised serious questions about the Continent's future. Christian churches are active in this debate, as social and cultural forces with influence and outreach. But questions are also being asked about the future of Christianity itself, in a region now deeply divided between competing outlooks and visions. Why has Christianity caused such passion? And what does the controversy say about the new Europe now being created - a secular, technocratic Europe, or a Europe more deeply united by shared norms and values?" "Rethinking Christendom explores the background to today's discussions, drawing on views and perspectives from East and West. It shows how Christianity became the essential badge of European-ness, and the universal reference point for societies drawn together by external threats and internal aspirations. It also demonstrates how, by asserting the individual's moral value, Christianity planted the seeds of democracy and human rights, pluralism and equality, and was fated, over time, to subvert and undermine unjust, dictatorial systems of rule." "While some Europeans see Christianity as a means of liberation, others view it as a barmier to freedom. This book is a plea for a realistic and informed understanding of Christianity's past, present and future role - in a region where all faiths, worldviews and philosophies can and should coexist in a mutual creative harmony."--BOOK JACKET.
