Socialism, Atheism And Christianity (1908)

By Chapman Cohen

Book Overview

""Socialism, Atheism and Christianity"" is a book written by Chapman Cohen and published in 1908. The book is a critical analysis of the relationship between socialism, atheism, and Christianity. Cohen argues that socialism and atheism are inherently linked, as both reject the notion of a higher power or deity. He also argues that Christianity is incompatible with socialism, as it promotes individualism and the accumulation of wealth, which are antithetical to socialist ideals of communal ownership and equality. Cohen critiques the Christian notion of charity, arguing that it is a form of paternalism that perpetuates social inequality. He also critiques the idea that Christianity can be reconciled with socialism, arguing that any attempt to do so would result in a watered-down version of socialism that is incompatible with its core principles. Overall, ""Socialism, Atheism and Christianity"" is a thought-provoking analysis of the complex relationship between these three ideologies and their implications for social and political change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
