About this listen

In the opinion of secular scholar Joseph McCabe, the teaching of Jesus was “almost entirely ethical”. He contends that the dogmatic pillars of organizational Christianity, such as original sin, the atonement and the divinity of Christ, were not part of Jesus’ message and originated with Paul. He also discusses the interminable and insoluble disagreements among theologians over the following two millennia. In conclusion, he expends particular vitriol on the institution of the priesthood, of which he had himself been a member in his younger days.

Originally published in 1929.

Dialectical Concise

Joseph McCabe was a Catholic Monk for 10 years in his youth (14-24) - in the UK - where he was an outstanding Biblical scholar. The problem was that through his monastic training - he eventually saw through the fog of theological delusion and adopted a clear understanding of the material world and everything in it! He left the monastery and became a prolific author - writing hundreds of logic-based books - of which this is a prime example.
