My Path to Atheism

by Annie Besant

Overview

What we dink of Christ whose son is he?” Humanechild of human parents, or divine Son or the AlmightyGod? When we consider his purity, his faith in the Father, his forgiving patience, his devoted work among the offscourings of society, his brotherly love to sinners and outcasts–when our minds dwell on these alone,–we all feel the marvelous fascination which has drawn millions to the feet of this “son of man,” and the needle of our faith begins to tremble towards the Christian pole . This book was converted from its physical edition to the digital format by a community of volunteers.
