Imperialism and Christ (1912)

Imperialism And Christ is a book written by Ford Cyrinde Ottman and published in 1912. The book explores the relationship between imperialism and Christianity, particularly in the context of American imperialism in the early 20th century.Ottman argues that American imperialism is not only incompatible with Christian values but also actively undermines them. He contends that imperialism is driven by greed, power, and a desire for domination, which are antithetical to the teachings of Christ.The book also discusses the role of missionaries in imperialism, arguing that they have often been complicit in the exploitation and oppression of colonized peoples. Ottman calls for a reevaluation of the Christian mission and a return to the principles of love, justice, and compassion.Overall, Imperialism And Christ is a thought-provoking critique of American imperialism and its impact on Christianity. It challenges readers to consider the ethical implications of imperialism and to strive for a more just and equitable world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
