Thinker's Library captures the works of great minds on a multitude of subjects. It puts together the works of prominent thinkers, belonging to varied fields of study and experience.
This book presents Edward Gibbon's views on the rise of Christianity, which formed the fifteenth and sixteenth chapters of his famous work Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. Gibbon negated all theories that ascribed miraculous divine intervention to the origin of Christianity, and viewed it as a natural historical process, explicable in terms of social causation. This secularist, rational point of view towards Christianity, instigated a barrage of anti-Gibbonian criticism and he was even labelled as the enemy of the faith.
