Reclaiming Christendom IX(a): Is a Christian Rapprochement Possible‪?‬ Nox Venit

    • Christianity

In November 2017, The Distributist read and commented upon an article by Felix Miller, "The Right Needs Joy". Discussing the possibility that the left has finally gone off the deep end, Distributist comments, "[I]f we are in the terminal phase of progressivism, the opposition to that dying force cannot be purely negative; it can't be a group of people who stand against nut jobs.... We need a reason to carry on civilization. We need reasons for joy." This series argues that the reasons for joy and for carrying on civilization are to be found in the reclamation of Christendom. In this episode, I begin discussing the problem of division among Christians, asking, first, if a Christian rapprochement is possible. In future episodes I will discuss divisions between Protestants, Roman Catholics, and the Eastern Orthodox.
