Modern Atheism under its forms of Pantheism, Materialism, Secularism, Development, and Natural Laws by James Buchanan is a theological treatise written in the mid-19th century. This work explores various schools of modern atheistic thought and examines their implications for the Christian faith. Through a thorough analysis, Buchanan aims to reinforce the validity of Theism by countering the prevalent atheistic ideologies of his time. The opening of the text serves as an introduction to the pressing need for a comprehensive understanding of atheism in a contemporary context. Buchanan discusses the importance of addressing not only the arguments of atheism but also the cultural and philosophical tides that foster such beliefs. He critiques the prevalent notion that atheism is not only an intellectual stance but is deeply rooted in a moral disconnect from God, leading individuals to deny divine existence to escape accountability. This introductory portion sets the stage for a detailed exploration of atheistic theories, highlighting the urgency for defenders of theism to engage with these philosophical challenges.
