| Summary | "Modern Substitutes for Christianity" by Pearson McAdam Muir is a theological critique written in the early 20th century. The book examines contemporary challenges to Christianity, addressing arguments that propose secular substitutes for religious belief, such as morality without religion, pantheism, and humanism. Through a detailed analysis, Muir defends traditional Christian doctrine against the claim that Christianity is obsolete and irrelevant in the modern age. The opening of the work introduces the theme of widespread skepticism towards Christianity and highlights various critiques of the faith, asserting that many consider it outdated and unaligned with modern science and morality. Muir summarizes several popular arguments against Christianity, calling attention to both the critiques and the nature of the critics, who range from secular thinkers to moral philosophers. He suggests that these allegations stem from misinterpretations or abuses of the faith rather than the core beliefs of Christianity, emphasizing that true Christianity continues to provide a necessary moral framework for society.
