Christianity after Freud

Author:
    1. Sanders.

Geoffrey Bles, Ltd. 8s. 6d.

This book bases its argument on Moses and Monotheism. The author, in a very convincing and logically sound way, uses Freud’s argument to prove the Christian case, but starting from theistic instead of the atheistic major premise.

The sections dealing with original sin, and the dispute as to whether it was due to sexuality or pride and aggression, are unusually interesting. This book and Freud and Christianity*, by R. S. Lee, M.A., D.Phil., which also has been recently published, are straws in the wind, indicating increasing respect by the theologian and the mental health specialist for each other’s background. A.T.
