Sermão contra o Filosofismo do Seculo XIX by José Agostinho de Macedo
"Sermão contra o Filosofismo do Seculo XIX" by José Agostinho de Macedo is a religious oratory delivered in the early 19th century. This sermon, preached in Lisbon, addresses the philosophical trends and ideas prevalent in the 19th century that Macedo perceives as a threat to Christian faith and traditional values. It critically examines the philosophies of the time, aiming to defend and exalt Christianity against modern skepticism and rationalism. In this sermon,
Macedo engages directly with contemporary philosophical arguments, vehemently defending the use of reason within the framework of faith rather than in opposition to it. He contends that true rationalism aligns with belief in God and the teachings of Christianity, while he characterizes those who challenge these beliefs as misguided and ultimately perilous to society. The sermon is a passionate and rhetorical rebuttal to the so-called "free thinkers," positioning faith as a rational choice supported by historical and experiential evidence of God's existence and the truth of Christian doctrine. Macedo's dialogue becomes an impassioned call to arms for believers, seeking to equip them with philosophical and theological arguments in defense of their faith against the tide of Enlightenment thought.
