|
A collection of 51 short essays by George William Foote, who in May 1881 founded |
||
the magazine "The Freethinker", which is still published (online) today. In the first |
||
issue, Foote writes: The Freethinker is an anti-Christian organ, and must therefore be |
||
chiefly aggressive. It will wage relentless war against superstition in general, and |
||
against Christian superstition in particular. |
||
The essays of this collection were previously published in "The Freethinker" over |
||
■b |
more than 10 years, and detail Foote's views on religion and Christianity. He writes |
|
•kii |
about as diverse topics as specific stories from the Bible, the devil, blasphemy and |
iL |
heretics, miracles, the weather, and the view of Christianity on women. What unites |
||
these essays is Foote's conviction that atheism is the logical and natural position with |
r-*v |
|
o -kJ |
respect to all religion and gods. |
