Lutheran theologian Jordan B Cooper lectures for one hour about the *Catholic* contributions to secularism and Enlightenment thought.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Jesuits are the main culprits in this regard, with ideas that "objectively" pointed towards skepticism, tolerance of atheism and ideas about universal religion.
By contrast, Lutheran theologians during the same period were unabashedly "Realist" and often harked back to Thomas Aquinas!
Actually a very interesting contribution.
