Benjamin tucker

Benjamin Tucker (1854-1939) was one of the founders of and most influential writers in the American individualist anarchist tradition.

According to his daughter Oriole, "Father's attitude towards communism never changed one whit, nor about religion.... In his last months he called in the French housekeeper. 'I want her,' he said, 'to be a witness that on my death bed I'm not recanting. I do not believe in God!"

In his writings, particularly his book "Instead of a Book by a Man Too Busy to Write One: A Fragmentary Exposition on Philosophical Anarchism," he repeatedly decries religion and especially the church.
