Christian
Rationalism is a science, a philosophy and is based on the non-biblical
christian philosophy. Its fundamental principles encompass concepts as old as
the Universe and life, as well as a sound pattern of behaviour for those who
wish to follow it. This behaviour, thanks to the knowledge it provides, leads
man to the knowledge of himself as Force and Matter. It shows that in every
manifestation of life there is a flicker of Intelligence, which, like in
ourselves, is part of Total Life. Thus we learn that we are but small torches
of life, still very blunt, part of an immense flash of lightning driving
forward the Cosmos - which is Universal Intelligent Life.
Christian
Rationalism as a science.
In this
regard there is no better person to explain why Christian Rationalism is a
science than Dr. Antonio Pinheiro Guedes (brazilian scientist and physician).
In his book Spiritualistic Science wrote the following:
"Science
is the knowledge of things, facts and phenomena in themselves, in their nature
and in the relationship between them and everything that surrounds them. Such
knowledge can only be obtained through systematic study, close observation and
detailed analysis. Consequently, science is the product of our intelligence,
the result of our work. It aims at a goal, it fulfils a need of our spirit. The
spirit ceaselessly feels the need to investigate. It is eager for knowledge. It
always wants light, more light.

The
purpose of Spiritualistic Science (which is the case of Christian Rationalism)
is to enlighten us about other worlds and life after death, to prove the
existence of the soul, its preexistence and survival to the body... It studies
the extraordinary but numerous, very numerous facts constituting a class of
phenomena which until recently were considered supernatural and thus disdained
as impossible, unworthy of study. However, if adequately researched, these
facts prove the existence of the spirit, enlighten us about Life and place a new
world before our dazzled, amazed eyes.
The
facts which 'Spiritualistic Science' deals with are not supernatural, not even
extraordinary. They simply escape the observation of those who do not know how
to see. They are natural, like everything else in the Universe. They are
common, ordinary and even frequent.But to see them, learn to notice them and
recognise them whenever and wherever they are present, it was necessary to
discover an instrument capable of recording them, making them evident and
obvious. Such instrument is the medium.Once the instrument was found and its
capabilities studied, facts began to be observed. First spontaneous facts,
later induced ones were observed with the purpose in mind of recognising the
nature of the cause which produced such phenomena. As a result of
spiritualistic studies, the immortality of the soul is established on
principles determined by perfectly irrefutable evidence.
The
reincarnation of the human spirit, consisting of successive existences or
multiple bodily lives of a conscious individual, is a law to which all spirits
are subject and is an essential condition for its advancement. Thus
Spiritualistic Science (Christian Rationalism) aims a purpose, studies a class
of facts, uses its own exclusive methods, processes and instruments. It
develops theories, establishes principles and laws. Therefore, it fulfils all
the requirements of scientific research.Consequently there is no doubt that
Spiritualism (Christian Rationalism) is a science. A vast, deep, eclectic
science, it builds up a synthesis of human life. It encircles the cycle of
evolution of the spirit, from beginning to infinity. Its principles and laws
have universal application. they are a guiding light in the middle of the
surrounding darkness, a lighthouse in the stormy sea of life."
Christian
Rationalism as a philosophy.
There
is a Philosophical School called "Rationalism" that should not be
confused with Christian Rationalism. The former is of materialistic nature
while the latter is eminently spiritualistic. Therefore they are diametrically
opposed. For that reason every time we refer to the Christian Rationalist
Doctrine we say Christian Rationalism and not just "Rationalism".

Christian
Rationalism is not associated with and is not similar to any other religion or
doctrine on Earth. It is unique and consists of only one code and only one
discipline. Practices and routines in Christian Rationalist Centres world-wide
are identical and in all the same unchangeable Principles prevail.
This
philosophy with its theoretical and practical teachings offers humanity the
best opportunity to live in a conscious and rational manner so human beings can
put into practice a secure and efficient working program with no wastefulness,
no mistakes and within the principles of solidarity and confraternisation. It
is an enlightening, constructive, moralist and purifying Doctrine, engaged in
restoring the Truth about life spiritual concepts. This a spiritualistic
philosophy that explains in a simple and rational manner, who are we, where did
we come from and where are we going to.
Our
philosophy was codified by Luiz de Mattos in 1912 with the launching of the
basic work 'Christian Rationalism' in 1914. However its principles are as old
as the world itself. It's a spiritualistic philosophy, free from mysticism or
religiosity, and therefore does not acknowledge the supernatural, mysteries and
dogmas. Everything in the Universe and in Life holds a rational explanation,
within the common, natural and unchangeable laws that rule all things.
Why
Christian?
Thousands
of years ago great men driven by ideals of reform tried with their teachings to
debrutalize humanity. Such men like Jesus, Budda, Confucius and Mohammed taught
similar spiritual principles, however besides not being understood, ended up
deified by the illiterate masses. Once the idea of divinization took hold, the
respective religions were created, each preaching a different form of
speculative worship, and the followers of each flocked together. Jesus Christ
and all the others were just men, remarkable MEN in fact, but nevertheless,
human beings like all of us, without any divine affiliations. All lectured the
principles that Christian Rationalism now teaches and thus despite its name, CR
is not in any way linked to the biblical Jesus Christ. In our view, the Jesus
described in the Bible never existed! The person known as Jesus was just a man,
though one of the the greatest men that ever existed on Earth!

Luiz de
Mattos the founder of this philosophy understood the above and since mankind
was and is in regrettable moral conditions, he codified CR to present humanity
with ethical patterns of behaviour and individual's norms of conduct, in
accordance with the Christian philosophy. This is why this philosophy and
science is also called Christian.
