The Profits of Religion: An Essay in Economic Interpretation by Upton Sinclair is a scathing critique of organized religion as an institution entangled with wealth, power, and class oppression. Sinclair argues that religious establishments often serve the interests of the rich, legitimizing social inequality and discouraging reform. Drawing on historical and contemporary examples, he exposes financial corruption, dogma, and the exploitation of faith for profit. From mainstream denominations to new religious movements, he examines how spiritual authority is used to control the working class. A radical work of social criticism, this essay challenges readers to distinguish between genuine morality and institutionalized religion serving economic elites. Part of Sinclair’s “Dead Hand” series, it remains a provocative exploration of faith, capitalism, and justice.
