Abstract
Of what importance is this question of atheism? Always of vital consequence to man and mankind, it presents today the paramount problem confronting humanity. In every nation, in every class of society we see godlessness daily making further encroachments upon the domains wherein formerly man was safely protected by faith in God. In Russia and Mexico atheism bas become a part of political domination; the German government seems constantly more eager to foist paganism upon its people; in America only fifty percent of the people are enrolled in any church.
