Christ Or Mars? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163145821)

Christ or Mars? is a thought-provoking book by Will Irwin that explores the relationship between religion and war. The author argues that throughout history, religion has often been used to justify and even promote warfare. He examines various religious traditions and their attitudes towards war, from the ancient Greeks and Romans to the Crusaders and the modern-day conflicts in the Middle East. Irwin also delves into the psychological and cultural factors that drive people to fight and die for their beliefs, whether they be religious or secular. Ultimately, he challenges readers to consider whether religion can ever truly be a force for peace, or if it will always be entangled with the violence and bloodshed of war. Written in a clear and engaging style, Christ or Mars? is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of religion and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
