Self-inflicted wounds: The Church and dissipation of Christianity in Europe
Self-inflicted wounds: The Church and dissipation of Christianity in Europe
Christianity in Europe is fading. A vague and symbolic identity is replacing belief in God, belonging to denominations, and attendance at religious services. Olivier Roy documents these changes in Is Europe Christian?, and shows how long-term secularism, recent populism, and the cultural shifts of the 1960s are responsible for this fall from grace.
