Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book brings a thoughtful examination of various amusements available during the cultural climate of the mid to late 1800s. The author, a Christian, contends that while dancing, theater, card playing, tobacco use, and other pastimes are common and even popular, they have negative and far-reaching consequences. The book argues that these recreations encourage immorality, disrupt spiritual lives, and set poor examples. The ideas are grounded in Biblical principles and the social values common in the Christian communities of the time, such as self-denial and the pursuit of holiness. The author believes that Christians should abstain from these activities for personal edification and to avoid being a hindrance to others.
