There is a subtle danger that leads people away from religion, prevents them from submitting to God as their Lord, and ultimately, brings numerous other forms of trouble and distress upon them. This danger is romanticism, which leads people to live, not according to their reason, but according to their emotions; that is, according to their desires, hatreds, their susceptibility to temptation, and their whims.
Romanticism can be recognised in many different areas of our lives: the clenched fist of a fascist, or the rousing anthem of a communist, are the symbols of the "political" dangers romanticism gives rise to. Emotional people, who make their loved ones the "sole object of their lives," who will commit every kind of unreasonable acts to be with their lover-so much so as to commit suicide-have all become the victims of this pernicious weapon used by satan.
The most disturbing aspect of the danger of romanticism though, is that an overwhelming number of people do not see it as a danger at all, nor do they realise either that it is actually a state of mind completely inimical to religion. In fact, many view it, not as a dangerous error, but rather as a virtue to be encouraged and widely propagated.
This book deals with and describes ways to avoid the danger of romanticism, which is one of the greatest obstacles preventing people from comprehending and living by God's religion.
