'''Joseph de Maistre''' saw the consequences of enlightenment; the great terror and the french revolution as the natural consequence of the abandonment of God and Christian morality, in fact viewing them as divine punishment for the hubris of man. He explicitly condemned secular rationalism as a concept upon which governments cannot be built upon, as they would inevitably fall to internal conflict, instead, the Catholic faith should serve the foundation for all authority and government. De Maistre was however (de facto) Christian humanist, justifying some humanist principles from a religious perspective.
