The failure of the 'Enlightenment', 'The beneficial results of the Protestant Reformation,' 'There has never been a Christian country,' John Calvin's alleged authoritarianism, German liberal Protestantism in the 19th century, and the profound secularism of modern German society in the 19th and early 20th centuries are also discussed.Following are two previously published magazine articles by the author, used with permission.
