More about the book
David Friedrich Strauss critically examined biblical accounts, challenging traditional beliefs and facing significant backlash, including dismissal from his teaching position. His later work, The Old Faith and the New, marks a pivotal shift as he renounces Christianity and critiques theism, arguing against the existence of God, the divinity of Christ, and miracles. Instead, he advocates for a worldview based on science, Darwinian evolution, and inductive reasoning, proposing a new understanding of humanity's role in the universe that seeks to address human issues through rational thought.
