Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book meticulously compares the fervent and often wild characteristics of early Methodism with the intense and sometimes shocking practices of medieval Catholicism. The author draws parallels between the extravagant claims, enthusiastic preaching, and self-inflicted pain inflicted by both Methodist and Catholic saints. Beyond the historical comparison, the author explores the nature of zealotry and fanaticism, questioning the fine line between true religious devotion and self-serving emotionalism. In doing so, the book challenges the idea that contemporary religious extremism is a phenomenon unique to our time, and cautions readers against the dangers of religious manipulation.
