Synopsis

Religious Rheumatism is a book written by Joseph Baer Baker and was first published in 1916. The book explores the concept of religious fervor and its impact on individuals and society. Baker argues that religious enthusiasm can be a positive force, but when taken to extremes, it can lead to fanaticism and intolerance. He compares this phenomenon to rheumatism, a painful condition that can be debilitating if left unchecked.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which examines a different aspect of religious rheumatism. Baker discusses the history of religious movements and the role of charismatic leaders in inspiring followers. He also explores the psychological and emotional factors that contribute to religious fervor, such as fear, guilt, and the desire for salvation.Baker's analysis of religious fervor is not limited to Christianity but also includes other religions and spiritual movements. He examines the similarities and differences between various religious traditions and how they manifest in different cultures.Overall, Religious Rheumatism is a thought-provoking book that offers insights into the nature of religious fervor and its impact on individuals and society. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the psychology of religion and the role of spirituality in human life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
