This provocative meditation on the turn of the millennium
explores the significance that a celebration of Christ's birth can
have beyond the Christian community.
Writing from the perspective of Christian philosophy, David
Walsh ponders the emergence of modern civilization from the
medieval Christian past, concluding that Christian theology grounds
the dominant ideas of modern society. He professes the importance
and promise of Christianity while rejecting the Gnosticism,
advocated by Harold Bloom and others, that places the divine within
the self.
Affirming Christ's place at the heart of civilization, Walsh
argues that the Christian faith has relevance beyond its own
boundaries for all traditions that find their common ground in
reason. This contemplative book asserts that the Christian
millennial jubilee has meaning for all and that it points the way
toward the fullness of life in this world as well as in
eternity.
