The (not so) Great Awakening

From the scholar Edmund Morgan: “Modern liberty may be in large measure considered an English invention.”

I was always raised to believe that the Great Awakening was nothing short of a divine intervention by God on society. However, I’ve recently been reading about some of the religious leaders who were opposed to the movement, namely Charles Chauncey. In reviewing his rationale for his position, it seems to mesh nicely with how many modern fundamentalists oppose today’s Christian denominations, namely sensationalism and theatrics woven into church services and worship.

Thoughts?

Same old Satan, same old theatrics, same old fakes.
The Church has been underground for 2 millenniums.
Public spectacles are usually the Enemy's devices.
