Early modern Europe was the birthplace of the modern secular
outlook. During the seventeenth century nature and human society
came to be regarded in purely naturalistic, empirical ways, and
religion was made an object of critical historical study. John
Locke was a central figure in all these events. This study of his
philosophical thought shows that these changes did not happen
smoothly or without many conflicts of belief: Locke, in the role of
Christian Virtuoso, endeavoured to resolve them. He was an
experimental natural philosopher, a proponent of the so-called 'new
philosophy', a variety of atomism that emerged in early modern
Europe. But he was also a practising Christian, and he professed
confidence that the two vocations were not only compatible, but
mutually sustaining. He aspired, without compromising his empirical
stance, to unite the two vocations in a single philosophical
endeavour with the aim of producing a system of Christian
philosophy.
