En savoir plus sur le livre

In the late second century, Christian Apologists defended their faith against accusations of atheism, cannibalism, and incestuous relationships. They argued that true atheism lay in the rejection of the false gods worshipped by critics, asserting that their abstention from the imperial cult and theaters was a testament to their devotion. The Eucharist was misinterpreted as cannibalism, while their expressions of love were framed as communal care rather than incest. This defense highlights the Apologists' commitment to a misunderstood faith amidst societal hostility.
