3.0 out of 5 stars Weak and Lacks Passion, April 7, 2006
By 
This review is from: The Idea of a Christian Society (Hardcover)
While T. S. Eliot may have had good intentions in arguing for a Christian society, he lacks the conviction to build a solid case. He seems overly concerned with style, which really isn't that commendable, merely academic sounding--and dated at that. His arguemnt really breaks down when in his mind he lowers Christianity to other religions.

In discussing the fact that the church and the world will always be at odds, other writers make the same point, only more convincingly. Peggy Noonan comes to mind immediately. She makes the case much more passionately.
