Description

Anarchism refers to a movement and political philosophy that is deeply suspicious of authority and opposes all dictatorial and involuntary forms of hierarchy. It has traditionally opposed the idea of organized religion. Anarchism is generally non-religious and is often anti-religious in nature. Its primary argument is that the Church supports the state and therefore religion supports politics. The opponents of political authority also oppose religious authority. Anarchists also believe that the original message which was given by the religious teachers, which consisted of ideas such as living a simple life, treating each other with respect and love, and live in peace, has been distorted by organized religions. This book provides significant information of this discipline to help develop a good understanding of the relationship between anarchism and religion. It aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects and the recent researches in this field. For someone with an interest and eye for detail, this book covers the most significant topics in the field of anarchism and religion.
