Omtale
Argues that, whether we like it or not, people acting for the glory of God have formed our modern culture. This book shows that the Christian conception of God resulted - almost inevitably and for the same reasons - in the Protestant Reformation, the rise of modern science, the European witch-hunts, and the Western abolition of slavery.
