Speaking of 1914…I once heard the esteemed Fr Raymond Brown speak. He said the modern American pentecostal movement began circa 1917 in CA with laity who were disturbed by what was being taught in the seminaries (or the products thereof).

Gandi was on the verge of becoming Christian when some rather over-bearing proselytizers got ahold of him. He was agst proselytizing and rejected Christianity apparently on that charge. His Hindu humanism embraced all religions equally, and opposed to doctrine, I guess he would have no opinion on resurrection. Except to say he held to a kind of pantheism that would favor re-incarnation. Unless of course someone knows something more specific?

But since I haven’t read the book, I’m just guessing based on your summary. Obviously, the resurrection is a critical component of our hope and purpose, and the church is suffering when the resurrection is denied within its own body.
