A Century of Anglican Theology: And Other Lectures (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from A Century of Anglican Theology: And Other Lectures
Certainly my Swiss friend was right. Platonism is a characteristic Of Anglican theology, and to the constant influence of Platonism Upon it has largely been due its greater faithfulness to the Catholic tradition Of theology as compared with the Lutheran and Reformed Churches Of the continent Of Europe. It would perhaps even be true to say that its isolation, the other note Of it to which I have called your attention, was itself not altogether independent Of its Platonism; for this reason, that it tended to render it less sympathetic on the one hand with the Aristotelianism which has dominated the scholastic tradition canonized in the schools Of the Roman Catholic Church, and on the Other with certain tendencies which deeply affected the general trend Of Protestant theology - with the tendency in earlier days to a certain hostility to reason and philo Sophy as dangerous rivals Of grace and revelation, and in modern times with the doubts (associated with the name Of Kant) as to the possibility Of a genuine knowledge Of God, Of a rational theology.'
