| Summary | "Continental Monthly, Vol. 5, No. 6, June, 1864" by Various is a periodical publication written in the mid-19th century. It compiles a variety of literary pieces and discussions on national policy, reflecting the thoughts and cultural dialogue of its time. The issue features notable essays, including a critical examination of Ernest Renan's theories on Christianity, alongside other writings that may explore contemporary issues of the day. The opening portion of this volume primarily presents a critique of Ernest Renan's work, "The Life of Jesus," where the author argues against Renan's dismissal of miracles and his portrayal of Jesus as merely a man. Engaging deeply with both Renan's theories and the historical validity of Christianity, the critique emphasizes the importance of faith amidst skepticism, asserting that Christianity's profound impact on history cannot be easily explained away by secular reasoning. The author defends the divine nature of Christ and dismisses Renan's interpretations as inadequate to capture the essence of Christianity and its successes throughout the ages.
