Western Christianity

Western Christianity consists of the Latin Church of the Catholic Church, a variety of Protestant denominations, and other groups originating in the Western world.

The term is used in contrast to Eastern Christianity. Western Christianity developed and came to predominate in most of Europe, Northern Africa, Southern Africa, and throughout Australia and the Western Hemisphere. When used of historical periods since the 16th century, 'Western Christianity' refers collectively to Roman Catholicism and Protestantism, especially to their shared theological approaches and perspectives (e.g., liturgically, doctrinally, historically and politically) rather than to their differences. Today, the geographical distinction between Western and Eastern Christianity is not nearly as absolute, especially after the spread of missionaries.

Original sin

Although "original sin" can be taken to mean the sin that Adam committed, it is usually understood as a consequence of the first sin, the hereditary stain with which we are born on account of our origin or descent from Adam. With the exception of tendencies such as Pelagianism, Western Christianity is thought to hold this doctrine, which was championed especially by Saint Augustine, who wrote: "The deliberate sin of the first man is the cause of original sin" (De nupt. et concup., II, xxvi, 43).

Have you ever noticed that there is a correlation between the amount something has cost you and the value you place on it? Let me give you an example. I own two pairs of shoes that are almost identical. I had been looking for this exact style for a long time but I couldn’t find it until one day I was walking through a department store and there they were hanging on a rack as if they were a clearance item. I went to take a look at them and then checked the price tag. They were selling them for $20. I was shocked and instead of excitement at what a great find this was, my reaction was to immediately start wondering what was wrong with them. Was this some sort of attempt to appeal to a lower end market with crappy quality or something? I never did get my answer so I just went ahead and bought them, but the feeling that I was getting something cheap and unworthy was nagging me. After using the shoes for a couple weeks, I found that they were holding up well and were comfortable so I decided to go back to the store and buy like a life time supply of them because they were almost too good to be true. When I got there I was startled to discover that they were selling them now for $80. I couldn’t make sense of it. Maybe someone had mislabeled the pair I had originally bought or something. So, I decided to pick up another pair that was almost the same but slightly different for that same $80 price tag. Since then, I’ve noticed something strange. Of the two pairs of shoes I’ve been really diligent in the way I take care of the ones that cost me $80 and the ones that cost me $20… not so much. I wore them camping and got caught in a rain storm, I dropped a piece of juicy watermelon on them about a week ago, and just before that I wore them for a visit out to my Aunt and Uncle’s farm and if you’ve never been to a farm before, let me just say… there’s a lot of pooping that goes on there. The reason for this disparity seems pretty obvious to me. Because this pair only cost me $20, I’ve carried an unshakable sense that they are only worth $20 even though I later found out that they were worth a lot more. That hasn’t influenced my behaviour towards them, however; because at the end of the day, they only cost me $20. I think that stands as a powerful analogy for why Christianity has been on such a dramatic decline in western culture. The last 50 years have been characterized by a trend of relaxation in practices and teachings of the faith by it’s leaders. We’ve seen some dramatic examples, especially in mainline Protestantism, in which there have been complete reversals on moral teachings. While that hasn’t happened in the official teachings of the Catholic Church, we’ve seen a disregard for the disciplines and practices. For example, in Canada, we used to be expected to attend mass on feast days of the liturgical calendar but they’ve since just moved those all over to the nearest Sunday. Many churches don’t even have kneelers any more because, I don’t know, we don’t want to be uncomfortable? Pro tip, that was the entire point of having kneelers. And instead of fasting during Lent, we’re often encouraged to just do something nice for somebody. I can understand the instinct for doing this. I think well intentioned pastors believed that aspects of the faith were too difficult for the faithful and so if we compromise and accommodate, we’ll retain members but what they essentially did, was reduced the cost of what it means to be a Christian. So the result has been a startling decline in affiliation and practice. In Europe, it’s even worse. They’re anticipating the complete disappearance of some denominations within the next few decades. My investment in my faith has cost me so much and transformed me in undeniable ways that it would be really hard for me to let go of because I’d have to admit that it was all for nothing. But had I not felt the need to invest myself as much as I have, I’d likely be able to walk away from it quite casually and easily. In the case of Christianity, this makes sense. After all, the symbol of our faith is an ancient method of torture and execution and Jesus said that following him would be like picking up your own cross as he did. Being a Christian isn’t supposed to be easy so if we continue to attempt to draw people in by reducing the cost of what it means to be a Christian, we’ll continue to set people up for disappointment by a counterfeit religion that does little to impact their lives.

An essential comparison between Orthodoxy, Protestantism and Roman Catholicism - from Fr. Dumitru Staniloae (+1993), the greatest Romanian Orthodox theologian: "This is Orthodoxy: the presence of Christ." This is a recording from 1992. Pictures from Mount Athos, Vatopedi Monastery © asceticexperience.com Disclaimer: This video is not intended to be disrespectful to any Christian community in the West. It is a reminder for everyone of us on the importance of Mystery in the Christian faith. Fr. Dumitru Staniloae: Here in Orthodoxy we have this subtlety: God is present, but we are not confounded with Him. He doesn’t confound Himself with us. We are not pantheists. We do not get lost in the divine essence. But we are not separated from Him either. You see, for the Catholics, Holy Mysteries are linked to a so-called 'created grace'. God creates a grace and helps us with it. But He is far away. The Pope manipulates this created grace, the bishops as well... and he imparts to us the merits that Christ has earned for us... a religion of merits... a religion that leaves us separated... And then the Protestants came and said, 'Why do we need Mysteries then? If they don’t give us Christ Himself through His uncreated energy... God Himself…’ And the protestant denominations came and completely destroyed the Mystery... 'We don't need mysteries anymore!' And everything that remained was a distant Christ, a Christ of speeches... We know about Him, we praise Him, we sing to Him, but we do not have Him in us… While here [in Orthodoxy] everything is sanctified through His presence. We sanctify the bread by His presence, we sanctify food by His presence, we sanctify all our acts by His presence... and He is present with His works... This is Orthodoxy: the presence of Christ. The Western world is a world of separation from God or of confusion between God and world. From the West came to us all these philosophies that confuse the world with God and say that the world is the ultimate reality... or they keep God distant (in the case of sects)... And we want to take them as a model... We don't realize what we already have! It's us who should give them! And in fact, many Westerners are starting to realize this and they seek to become Orthodox, to translate our books, to read the Holy Fathers, where this conception of the value of the person was developed... They had an adolescent mind… came out of barbarism... an intellect that separates... "This is something, that is something else..." separated... "This is God, this is where the world begins..." This rationalism has brought certain things to the West, it has brought an organization of life, technique... but they don't see the Mystery of existence... They are very poor in this respect... But we have this feeling of Mystery. Even in the world, in the beauty of the world, we see the presence of God. In us there is no separation between reasoning and the feeling of Mystery. The more we know the harmonious richness of the world, the more we see life, the Mystery of God, the more we live this Mystery of God. The faith is much more complex, much more refined, in the way we live it, the faith of the Gospel, which came after all philosophies, surpassing all philosophies. In the Holy Fathers we have the highest thought: a union between reason and Mystery. This reason, the more it sees the wealth and harmony of the world, the more it sees its mystery... This is the difference between us and the West when it comes to faith.

Titus Street Professor of Ecclesiastical History, Bruce Gordon, takes you on a journey through the history of Western Christianity from approximately 200 to 1650 CE. This MOOC, which will be offered on the Coursera platform will focus on central themes/questions that have shaped the emergence of the religion from the ancient world to the Scientific Revolution. This course follows the extraordinary development of Western Christianity from its early persecution under the Roman Empire in the third century to its global expansion with the Jesuits of the early modern world. We explore the dynamic and diverse character of a religion with an enormous cast characters. We will meet men and women who tell stories of faith as well as of violence, suppression, and division. Along the way, we encounter Perpetua and her martyrdom in Carthage; the struggles of Augustine the bishop in North Africa; the zeal of Celtic monks and missionaries; the viciousness of the Crusades; the visions of Brigit of Sweden; and the fracturing of Christianity by Martin Luther’s protest. We hear the voices of great theologians as well as of those branded heretics by the Church, a powerful reminder that the growth of Christianity is a story with many narratives of competing visions of reform and ideals, powerful critiques of corruption and venality, and exclusion of the vanquished. The troubled history of Christian engagement with Jews and Muslims is found in pogroms and expulsions, but also in the astonishing ways in which the culture of the West was transformed by Jewish and Islamic learning. We shall explore the stunning beauty of the Book of Kells, exquisitely prepared by monks as the Vikings terrorized the coast of England. We will experience the blue light of the windows of Chartres, and ponder the opening questions of Thomas Aquinas’ great Summa. We will read from the Gutenberg Bible of the fifteenth century, which heralded the revolution brought by the printing press. We will travel from Calvin’s Geneva to Elizabeth’s England to Trent, where a Catholic Council met to inaugurate a modern, missionary Catholic church. We will walk through the great Escorial of Philip II of Spain, hear the poetry of John of the Cross, and follow the Jesuits to Brazil and China. Christianity in the West was forged in the fires of conflict and tumult, and it brought forth both creativity and violence. It echoed with calls for God’s world to be transformed, it inspired the most sublime art and architecture, yet it also revealed the power of the union of cross and sword to destroy. The course is a journey through the formation of the West as one strand of Christianity, as one chapter in a global story. It is a journey that has shaped our world. This MOOC starts Spring 2017 and can be found at coursera.org/yale.

Western Christianity

Western Christianity consists of the Latin Church of the Catholic Church, a variety of Protestant denominations, and other groups originating in the Western world.

The term is used in contrast to Eastern Christianity. Western Christianity developed and came to predominate in most of Europe, Northern Africa, Southern Africa, and throughout Australia and the Western Hemisphere. When used of historical periods since the 16th century, 'Western Christianity' refers collectively to Roman Catholicism and Protestantism, especially to their shared theological approaches and perspectives (e.g., liturgically, doctrinally, historically and politically) rather than to their differences. Today, the geographical distinction between Western and Eastern Christianity is not nearly as absolute, especially after the spread of missionaries.

Original sin

Although "original sin" can be taken to mean the sin that Adam committed, it is usually understood as a consequence of the first sin, the hereditary stain with which we are born on account of our origin or descent from Adam. With the exception of tendencies such as Pelagianism, Western Christianity is thought to hold this doctrine, which was championed especially by Saint Augustine, who wrote: "The deliberate sin of the first man is the cause of original sin" (De nupt. et concup., II, xxvi, 43).
