Description

An impassioned tract from the early 1920s, this work brings together a former Episcopal bishop’s theological training and a radical socialist outlook. Written in the wake of World War I, it takes Marx’s critique of religion and Darwin’s ideas about evolution as lenses to compare and contrast Christianity with communism, asking readers to weigh spiritual promises against materialist visions of a classless society.

The author argues that religion serves as a comforting illusion that masks exploitation, while true emancipation lies in the workers’ collective control of land, factories and transport. Drawing on a seven‑point program of socialist principles, the text urges laborers to see the struggle for common ownership as both a moral and practical path to freedom, presenting a fervent call to re‑interpret faith in the service of social revolution.
