this is only 1/3 correct and should include English of the same era - and finally John Dewey of course
The Germans were way ahead of the curve on this - the English were followers.
Dr. Gary Dorrien, the author of “German Idealism and Hegelian Spirit” wrote this in his book, “Liberal theology was born in largely illiberal contexts in the 18th century Germany and England, a fact that helps explain why much of it was far from liberal. Most of the great thinkers in this story were Germans, the key founding fathers were Germans, and there was a vital intellectual movement of liberal theology in Germany for a century before a similar movement existed in Britain …. For better and for worse, German thinkers dominated modern theology right up to the point that liberal theology crashed and burned, after which the field was still dominated by the intellectual legacies of Immanuel Kant, G.W.F. Hegel, Friedrich Schleiermacher, and the Ritschlian School.”
