The Rise of Atheism and The Impact on the Church. Part 1

Church History

In this episode of the Church History Podcast, we delve into the history of atheists and their impact on the church today; atheists' philosophies, such as Charles Darwin's and Karl Marx's, shaped the modern church. We explore Darwin's journey from faith to evolution and how his ideas influenced science and societal ideologies that justified harmful practices. Then, we turn to Karl Marx, whose radical political theories and rejection of religion spurred the rise of communism, resulting in significant global upheaval. Finally, we discuss the contrasting response from Christian figures like William Wilberforce and Harriet Tubman, whose faith-driven actions led to meaningful change and justice. Join us as we discuss the long-lasting impact of these worldviews and the church's role in today's society.
