English term or phrase: been challenged
Christianity brought into history the idea of human excellence being manifested in service to others, especially the weak and vulnerable. This has always ****been challenged*** of course, even to our day, by those who see the affirmation of human excellence as residing in service to others as degenerate and beneath human dignity. It has ***been challenged*** in the modern era by the likes of Nietzsche or Ayn Rand, in national socialism or communism or the in eugenics movement, in which one’s own personhood is manifested in the sheer exercise of the will and of dominance over others for one’s own ends.
