Religion is a major sub-theme in the adventures of "Huckleberry Finn" and Twain takes many shots at
organised Religion through
events in the text and through the moral awakening of a naive boy, Huck. This paper discusses why it is important to remember that Twain does not tell us that
religion is useless, rather that
organised religion's place in society is. It shows how Twain offers a critique about organised religion in its practical or rather impractical form, its teaching form and its place in society.
