Huge figure from the mid-20th century. One of Roger Scruton’s Fools and Frauds.
I know at one time he was very anti-religion, but he changed about 35 years ago, and is particularly pro-Christian.
And Scruton's disdain is plenty damning.
Oh my yes, and one of the worst. Others include Horkheimer, Marcuse, Lukacs, Adorno, and Fromm, not to mention a fellow who did jail time for selling sex boxes, Wilhelm Reich. The level of sheer intellectual kitsch is staggering.
I remember reading one of his book. But I can’t remember the title or what he said.
