A quote by keir hardie.
Im not a religious person. But this type of Christianity i can get behind
‘Those of us who for many years past have practically deserted the religious platform, have not done so because our faith in religion has grown less, but because the Church thought fit to specialise in what it most unfairly calls the spiritual side of Christianity.’ His key message was, ‘Christianity on its social side can never be realised, if it is to be interpreted in the light of Christ’s teachings, until there is full free communism…… The rich and comfortable classes have annexed Jesus and perverted His Gospel. And yet He belongs to us…. Make no mistake about this. The only way we can serve God is by serving mankind. There is no other way
