Religion Vs Socialism

Monday July 14, 2003
Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902) and Karl Marx (1818-1883) viewed socialism and religion through two different prisms with the ultimate goal of uplifting the downtrodden and the exploited class. In this comparative study, Manoj Sadasivan discusses, how these two towering personalities of the 19th century redefined our outlook to human nature and society in their own unique ways. If you can conjure up a conversation between the two greats on Hinduism, what it would be like? Discuss it here.
