031 - Book 2 - The Encounter Chapter 5 Part 2

from Lord of the World · host Robert Hugh Benson

In this thought-provoking apocalyptic novel from the early 1900s, Mr. Benson envisions a future where humanity is divided into two opposing factions Humanitarianism, which venerates man as the ultimate divinity, and Catholicism, which upholds God as the supreme authority. Often regarded as one of the earliest modern dystopias, this compelling narrative explores profound themes of faith, morality, and the human condition. (Summary from an original London Times review and Wikipedia)
