add to cart   close window

This article presents the author's views on the issue of marriage in Communists societies. One such social order, is the Oneida Community, which was established and carried on for thirty years by a group of early Vermonters claiming no less a virtue than perfection itself. The men and women who undertook this experiment were members of a heretical religious sect who styled themselves Perfectionists. Their heresy consisted in a, denial of the Calvinist doctrine that man is by nature depraved, and the assertion that if given opportunity by his environment he can be not only good but perfect.
