Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Conflict of Christianity With Heathenism
The subject which Dr. Uhlhorn has treated in the follow ing work is fitted to call into exercise his best powers, - his quick and broad sympathies with humanity, especially the poor and wretched, his ample and thorough learning, and his ability to clothe his thoughts in forms fitted to interest Wide circles of readers. Dr. Channing, in his Essay on Fenelon, has recognized the grandeur and importance of this theme, and its need of juster treatment. It is of permanent and universal interest. We are transported to an ancient battle-field, but the cause is our own. Christianity, from the beginning, had to encounter active, skilful foes. Judaism and Heathenism were no abstractions, but armed warriors. The struggle was a n'tal one, not a question of mere organization, or subsidiary doctrine, but of the origin.
