On the prospects of Christianity explores the philosophical and moral foundations of the Christian faith while questioning its absence in real-world practice. The work critically reflects on how religious ideals, though widely professed, remain largely unfulfilled in social and political realities. Through a series of reasoned reflections, the author examines the broader meaning of faith, salvation, and morality, urging a reinterpretation of spiritual teachings in a more pragmatic and humane context. The narrative contrasts the essence of selflessness, compassion, and justice with the material pursuits and complacency of modern society. Drawing on symbolic historical events, the text argues that humanity continues to favor worldly ambition over spiritual integrity. It challenges readers to reconsider core ethical principles, not as rigid dogma but as a framework for social improvement and moral progress. The book ultimately advocates for a conscious integration of religious principles into public life, proposing that faith must evolve beyond ritual and rhetoric to address the inequities and moral fatigue of contemporary civilization.
