[Beauregard Bottomley · Rating 4 out of 5]

In the perspective of the now of its time period the current religion in vogue seems relevant, but from today’s perspective the history being told seems anachronistic and trite in order to fulfill the narrative about the narrative that justifies the author’s certainty in their own determinations. The irrelevance of this book is obvious today and that’s what makes this book so relevant for today’s reader.

I only stumbled on to this book because it was included in The Collected Works of Immanuel Kant and I’ve been reading that book cover to cover. I would say this is the one book in that series of books that really didn’t belong in the collected works.

Overall, I never really tire of books such as this one, when the history that is purportedly being reported is not as interesting as the history that the author is revealing about themselves. I think most people would look at this book as out of step with today’s theologians, and it tells a story about long forgotten people and thought movements; I see it as a future reflection for how today’s theological or history books will be seen by future generations.
