A Plea For The Christians is a book written by Athenagoras, a Christian philosopher who lived in the second century AD. The book is a defense of Christianity against the accusations and misunderstandings that were prevalent at the time. Athenagoras argues that Christians are not atheists, as they believe in one God, and that they are not immoral, as they follow a strict moral code. He also addresses other criticisms, such as the accusation that Christians are cannibals because they eat the body and blood of Christ during Communion. Athenagoras uses logic and reason to refute these accusations and to explain the true nature of Christianity. The book is an important historical document that provides insight into the early Christian church and the challenges it faced.Three things are alleged against us: atheism, Thyestean feasts, OEdipodean intercourse. But if these charges are true, spare no class: proceed at once against our crimes; destroy us root and branch, with our wives and children, if any Christian is found to live like the brutes. And yet even the brutes do not touch the flesh of their own kind; and they pair by a law of nature, and only at the regular season, not from simple wantonness; they also recognise those from whom they receive benefits.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
