	History of Philosophy 21
		Christianity will be an ever-present factor in philosophical speculation: the rationalist who refuses its aid and the religious philosopher who accepts that aid must show reason for such refusal or acceptance.
		But, though the rationalistic spirit and the religious spirit pervade the whole history of the philosophy of the Christian era, they are not always present in equal proportion or in equal strength.
		Dissatisfied with the explanation which the Christian religion had to offer on such questions as the origin of evil and the nature of man, the Gnostics turned to pagan philosophy for a solution of these and other problems.

		In fact it might be better, the argument goes, to entitle this, as all other periods, a "pre-Christian era"; because this era, like all others in human history, finds man caught up in his idolatries, in his self-worship, in his turning away from God, his Creator and Redeemer.
		It is the task of the Christian community, as it has always been, so this argument runs, to challenge man to come out of his pre-Christian era, to repent and to come to terms with the activity of God in Christ.

		As the Pope said, when thanking Poland for attempting to keep a reference to Christianity in the text, "one doesn’t cut off the roots from which one was born".

		It is remarkable, however, that the Christian era was not introduced as a basis of reckoning till the sixth century; and even then its adoption made very slow progress.
		It is not, properly speaking, a chronological era; but it is much used by chronologists on account of its affording considerable facilities for comparing different eras with each other, and in marking, without ambiguity, the years before Christ.
		In regard to all these five eras (and many others of less importance), there is difficulty and confusion in having to count sometimes backwards and some-times forward, according as a particular date is before or after the commencement of the era.
