Émile, or On Education – A Philosophical Classic by Jean-Jacques Rousseau | Audiobook Part 1
⭐ Catholic / Scholarly Star-Rated Review ★★★☆☆ (3/5 – Influential but Theologically Problematic) Émile, or On Education by Jean-Jacques Rousseau is one of the most influential—and controversial—works in the history of educational philosophy.

While Émile profoundly influenced Western education, psychology, and political theory, its religious framework—particularly the famous Profession of Faith of the Savoyard Vicar—departs sharply from Catholic doctrine, promoting religious subjectivism and naturalism. This audiobook is best approached as a historical and philosophical study, not a theological guide. Ess...

Key to the Science of Theology (Unabridged Audiobook) | A 19th-Century Vision of Revelation & Reason
⭐ Catholic Star-Rated Review ★★★☆☆ (3/5 – Historically Significant but Theologically Divergent) Key to the Science of Theology by Parley P. Pratt is a bold 19th-century attempt to systematize theology through reason, revelation, and cosmology.
