Immorality of Christianity presents profoundly exciting and intensely revealing psychological character studies of the personality traits of priests and prophets who formed Judeo-Christianity, from Abraham's incestuous relationship with his sister, to Moses' murderous slaughter of 3,000 members of his own tribe, to Paul's arrogant and boastful ranting, comparing himself to Jesus.
Immorality of Christianity boldly establishes that America was NOT founded on Christian principles, but on the premis that man is free, an idea presented by freethinkers and humanists of the era, determined to establish a government free from the dictates of a devine king.

Immorality of Christianity,
By Lisa Pendragon (Washington) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Immorality of Christianity (Paperback)
As a young adult, living in the world with people who believe that the most important event to happen is Armaggedon, I had a sense of futility to my future. I saw Immorality of Christianity on the shelf and the title immediately caught my attention. I have always had a feeling about religion, but I never considered it to be immoral. Now I understand that my feelings of guilt and shame were imbedded into my emotions long before I had a chance to understand them. I recommend this book as a "must read"--the title, cover and biblical verse should be taken seriously, as well as every page, from cover to cover. This book is exciting and deliberate in its delivery of rational point after point against god-worship and blood sacrifice. I normally underline important phrases, this book was one important phrase after another. I find myself using the analogies all the time. I'll never think that the Bible and Christianity and God provide moral purpose again.

Prophetic Insight!,
By Helen (Tacoma, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Immorality of Christianity (Paperback)
In this time of crisis, I was looking for something that might give me some answers. The cover of this book spoke to my deep fears. After 2000 years of Christianity and the teachings of Jesus to "love one another" it made no sense to me that we are on the brink of another war, one with world wide destruction as its outcome. G. James Stewart "prophecied" the deterioration of our civil liberties as well as what could happen if fundamental Christianity is allowed to possess the hearts and minds of our leaders. It all makes sense to me now. The goal of Christianity is to bring about the "Day of the Lord" so that all those who don't worship Jesus will be "devoured with the fire" of God's jealousy. I found this excerpt especially chilling:"Page 107" "Today we are way beyond conventional warfare. Countries are filled with nuclear arsenals, armed, aimed and ready to be used. We count on the rationality of good common sense, and the love of life to keep world leaders from using these awful weapons of destruction on human life. But what happens if any of these world leaders determine to take the perverse immoral scriptures of God's wrath seriously and decide to do God's dirty work?" (This book was written in 1999) The whole world should read this book!

WOW! So many issues brought to light in just a few pages,

This review is from: Immorality of Christianity (Paperback)
I have been looking for a book like this for a long time. G. James Stewart covers a wide range of ethical issues from the Bible and does so in just 173 pages. The reading is very quick and wrote in laymen's terms. Also, Stewart cites the Bible on all of his accusations. Actually, the citations can be distracting because there are so many.I do have minor reservations with this book, but they are just that - minor. One being that he does not state very much of a positive case, just the negative case. This book is well worth your time.
