Religion and Socialism [Waterfall]

Pope Francis

Waterfall is a guided series of courses for those interested in issues upon which Objectivism has something distinctive and important to say.

The second course: Socialism. Examine the aspirations, arguments, strategies, and disasters of socialist theory and practice—as well as explore the strongest criticisms of socialism. Authors include Ayn Rand, Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, Robert Heilbroner, Alan Charles Kors, George Orwell, Michael Harrington, Ludwig von Mises, Stephen Hicks, Jennifer Grossman, and Steven Horwitz.

This week we feature Religion and Socialism: What do C.S. Lewis, Pope John Paul II, and Pope Francis have in common? Do they hold that Christians should or should not be socialists?
