Atheism in Christianity
Ernst Bloch Original title Atheismus im Christentum (German, 1968)

Atheism in Christianity is a 1968 book by the Marxist philosopher Ernst Bloch. The book offers a third way to the Christian/atheist either/or debate. Gareth Jenkins from Socialist Review says that Bloch "argues that there are liberatory, 'atheist' elements within Christianity with which socialists should make common cause."
