Synopsis
Paine's years of study and reflection on the role of religion in society culminated with this, his final work. An attack on revealed religion from the deist point of view -- embodied by Paine's credo, "I believe in one God, and no more" -- its critical and objective examination of Old and New Testaments cites numerous contradictions., "Of all the tyrannies that affect mankind, tyranny in religion is the worst," declared Thomas Paine, adding, "every other species of tyranny is limited to the world we live in; but this attempts to stride beyond the grave, and seeks to pursue us into eternity." Paine's years of study and reflection on the role of religion in society culminated with his final work, The Age of Reason. This coolly reasoned polemic influenced religious thinking throughout the world at the dawn of the nineteenth century, and its resonance remains undiminished by time. The selfsame humanist and egalitarian views that made Paine a popular figure of the American Revolution brought him into frequent conflict with political authorities. Parts of The Age of Reason were written in a French jail, where Paine was confined for his opposition to the execution of Louis XVI. An atack on revealed religion from the deist point of view -- embodied by Paine's credo, "I believe in one God, and no more" -- this work undertakes a hitherto unheard-of approach to Bible study. Its critical and objective examination of Old and New Testatments cites nemerous contradictions as evidence against literal interpretations of the text. Well articulated and eminently readable, The Age of Reason is a classic of free thought., Paine's years of study and reflection on the role of religion in society culminated with this, his final work. A coolly reasoned polemic, it influenced religious thinking throughout the world at the dawn of the 19th century, and its resonance remains undiminished by time. An attack on revealed religion from the deist point of view--embodied by Paine's credo, "I believe in one God, and no more"--it undertakes a hitherto unheard-of approach to Bible study. Its critical and objective examination of Old and New Testaments cites numerous contradictions, as evience against literal interpretations of the text. Well articulated and eminently readable, The Age of Reason is a classic of free thought., Based on years of study and reflection by the author, this 18th-century work, which was written from the deist point of view, questions Christian beliefs and the role of religion in society.

    Age of Reason for Free-Thinkers

    Each person has the right to their opinion, so this review will be my opinion. The single thing that stands out in this book is that if a person is confronted with the obvious and still acts the same as they were in the face of it, is in a sad state, indeed. Mr. Paine takes the bible, chapter by chapter from Genesis through Revelation and points out, using the chapters themselves, to show how they could not possibly have been written by the persons to whom they are credited. He also goes on to put "mystery", "revelation" and "prophecy" in their proper places as the lies they are and why they are lies. He believes that god is revealed in the wonders of nature and the universe around us and the knowledge of right and wrong that is inside us. He does not profess what god looks like or is, and ...

    Used paperback Thomas Payne.

    This is a used paper back book with some yellowing but all the pages were intact and with no dog ears or notes. I am satisfied with the quality and price of this book and will use this site again.
