43. New Paths in the 19th Century

In this episode we follow some of the cases of the increasing number of expressions of belief/unbelief that emerge in the 19th Century. The old faith is considered unbelievable, but much of what it offered comes to be seen as somewhat essential. It is a period of exploration, with many different trajectories emerging in the pursuit of something plausible.
