4.0 out of 5 starsOLD BOOK, SOME NEW THINKING
By Severin Olson on August 18, 2007
Format: Paperback
Written in the 1920's, this is an old book about the dominant cults of the period. It centers on Christian Science, New Thought, and Spiritualism. Christian Science is now in sharp decline and the latter two are rarely heard of these days, their ideas incorporated under other names. Atkins examines why Western society has been such fertile ground for these cults. His best chapter explores Christian Science, whose arguments he refutes quite eloquently. Readers should note that while this is an old book, it still provides a fresh perspective.

2.0 out of 5 starsAbout as modern as Edison lamps and trolley cars.

I should have checked the publication date before downloading. This sucker is ancient! Even the names of some of the sects are different from current usage.

Could be a hoot to religious historians, though.

Fantastic way to get in some good reading when your schedule doesn't allow you to on you average day. I can listen while I am driving or through by blue tooth ear while I am working.

Not sure about this book. After reading it , I got the impression that the writer was suggesting that we use some of the methods of these cults to improve on Christianity.

2.0 out of 5 starsGood outdated resource
By Kristen Smith on August 16, 2016

The cults are ever changing. Atkins delivered an in depth review of them for his time. His writing style is laborious and hard to follow at times.
