Communism And Religion In Russia And China, Walter W. Oetting
Communism And Religion In Russia And China, Walter W. Oetting
Concordia Theological Monthly
Scores of impressive books are appearing on the nature of Communism in Russia and China, on the history of Russia as background to what happened in 1917, reprints of Russian and Communist classics, and on the struggle between Christianity and Communism. A single reviewer could not hope even to list, much less review, this literature. The task that this reviewer has set for himself is to examine the "pick of the pack," especially those that have come across his desk for one reason or another.

Christianity And Communism -An Ideological Comparison, Ralph L. Moellering
Christianity And Communism -An Ideological Comparison, Ralph L. Moellering
Concordia Theological Monthly
In his book Communism and Christ, Charles W. Lowry contends that we are living in a new religious age. As evidence he points to the post-World War II popular religious revival, to what he calls "a new priesthood" set up by psychiatry, to the influence of existential thought in philosophy and theology (consider Paul Tillich), and to the "collective neurosis" brought on by the crisis and anxieties of our hydrogen-missile age.

Early Christian Attitudes Toward The Roman State, Walter W. Oetting
Early Christian Attitudes Toward The Roman State, Walter W. Oetting
Concordia Theological Monthly
The church always confronts the state. Sometimes the relationship is casual, as in the United States, where, generally speaking, the church is allowed to carry on its work with little interference. Often, however, the relationship is one of antagonism, as in the Soviet Union, where the state insists that it has no concern at all about religion but where the Communist party, closely tied to the State, is in continuous struggle to convince the people to forsake their piety. Sometimes the relationship is one of domination. Either the church dominates the state, as was theoretically true during the Middle Ages …
