Excerpt from Essays and Reviews: Chiefly on Theology, Politics and Socialism My Catholic friends, who have been frequently dis turbed by hearing it alleged that Catholicity is anti republican and incompatible with popular institutions, will find no direct attempt to refute so silly, nay, so absurd an objection. I respect my religion, and even the great body of my own countrymen, too much to undertake to do that. But they will find that I have attempted, not unsuccessfully perhaps, to prove that without the Catholic religion it is impossible permanently to sustain popular institutions, or to secure their free and salutary operations. Indeed no form of govern ment can be secure or operate well without the Church. Without Catholicity you can have, in principle at least, only despotism or anarchy. All that our countrymen find in our institutions has been adopted from England, and inherited from Catholic ancestors.

"If anyone was ever a socialist, it was Jesus."—Kelley Rose, Democratic Socialists of America Economist and historian Lawrence W. Reed has been hearing people say "Jesus was a socialist" for fifty years. And it has always bothered him. Now he is doing something about it. His new book demolishes the claim that Jesus was a socialist. Jesus called on earthly governments to redistribute wealth? Or centrally plan the economy? Or even impose a welfare state? Hardly. Point by point, Reed answers the claims of socialists and progressives who try to enlist Jesus in their causes. As he reveals, nothing in the New Testament supports their contentions. Was Jesus a Socialist? could not be more timely. Socialism has made a shocking comeback in America. Poll after poll shows that young Americans have a positive image of socialism. In fact, more than half say they would rather live in a socialist country than in a capitalist one. And as socialism has come back into vogue, more and more of its advocates have tried to convince us that Jesus was a socialist. This rhetoric has had an impact. According to a 2016 poll by the Barna Group, Americans think socialism aligns better with Jesus's teachings than capitalism does. When respondents were asked which of that year's presidential candidates aligned closest to Jesus's teachings, a self-proclaimed "democratic socialist" came out on top. Sure enough, the same candidate earned more primary votes from under-thirty voters than did the eventual Democratic and Republican nominees combined. And in a 2019 survey, more than 70 percent of millennials said they were likely to vote for a socialist. Was Jesus a Socialist? expands on the immensely popular video of the same name that Reed recorded for Prager University in July 2019. That video has attracted more than four million views online. Ultimately, Reed shows the foolishness of trying to enlist Jesus in any political cause today. He writes: "While I don't believe it is valid to claim that Jesus was a socialist, I also don't think it is valid to argue that he was a capitalist. Neither was he a Republican or a Democrat. These are modern-day terms, and to apply any of them to Jesus is to limit him to but a fraction of who he was and what he taught."

Excerpt from The Case Against Socialism: Plainly Stated for the Man in the Street I desire to have it distinctly understood that an objection to Socialism and an aversion to Socialistic legislation does not necessarily imply contentment with the existing state of affairs. I am not one of those who calmly and placidly tell you "We are very well as we are." We are not very well as we are. There are many anomalies to be removed, many wrongs to be redressed, much useless suffering to be relieved. But there is no one remedy which will cure all the ills of the body politic, just as there is no one remedy which will cure all diseases of the physical body, although many quack nostrums are advertised which make this claim. Socialism is the "purple pill" of politics, warranted by those who prescribe it to be a sure and certain cure for the manifold social evils which civilization has brought in its train. I propose very briefly to examine its claims. This little work is not intended to be a textbook for the student. He has been amply catered for by other writers, such as Mr. W. H. Mallock and Mr. Max Hirsch, and to these I wish to acknowledge my own deep indebtedness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
