More about the book
Challenging institutionalized religion, this pamphlet by Thomas Paine critiques the legitimacy of the Bible and the corruption within the Christian Church. Released in three parts during the late 18th century, it sparked a deistic revival in America but faced hostility in Britain due to fears of political radicalism. Paine champions reason over revelation, dismissing miracles and advocating for a creator-God while treating the Bible as an ordinary literary work. The text promotes natural religion and highlights the need for rational thought in spiritual matters.
