Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paganism and Christianity IE any great classical writers of the ancient world, like Seneca or Cicero, could come to life again, nothing surely would astonish them more than the descriptions they might read in our books of the state of the world when they left it, of its moral depravity, and the absence of all religious ideas. One would gladly hear what they would say to it all; but, failing that, it only remains to enter as much as possible into their tone of thought, and to present the case between Christianity and Paganism as they might do if they could now speak for them selves, and had at their command eighteen centuries of Church history and all the writings of the Fathers and theologians.
