A Godless Crusade: The Progressive Campaign to Rid the World of Religion

In the 21 st century, America has become a polarized nation on the brink of civil war. 

Progressive elites have succeeded in capturing virtually all of America’s major institutions and are actively threatening to silence and ostracize conservatives from the public square. Many Americans are at a loss to explain how we have arrived at this place.

A Godless Crusade traces the evolution of the culture wars to the rise of secular humanism and secular religion that denies the role of God and revealed morality and seeks to expunge them from society. “Wokism” as the most recent avatar of cultural Marxism represents a direct attack on God and the Judeo-Christian ethic, opposing views that will not peacefully be reconciled.
