The Age of Reason Parts 1 - 3 Plus Other Writings on Religion

British born, Thomas Paine (1737-1809) was an author, pamphleteer, radical, inventor, intellectual, revolutionary, and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. He believed that democracy should be extended to all countries in the world. He also believed that a second revolution was needed, the replacement of revealed religions like Christianity with a universal natural religion, deism. For this reason he wrote and published "The Age of Reason" (1793-94), which advocated deism and promoted reason and freethinking, arguing against revealed religion, Christian doctrines and the Bible. This edition of the Age of Reason contains the complete book (Parts 1-3) as well as virtually all other writings on religion by Thomas Paine including essays he intended for Part 4. It should be of great interest to deists, atheists, agnostics, and humanists, etc. This book is part of The Freethinker Library and as such will be of interest to freethinkers, atheists, humanists, and progressives. Also included in the Library are a 7-volume set of the works of Robert G. Ingersoll, and writings by Thomas Jefferson, Voltairine de Cleyre, Joseph McCabe, Marilla Ricker, and others.
