In Thomas The Age Of Reason
1,579 wordsThomas Paine wrote The Age of Reason in 1784. In it he included his views on the religions known throughout the world. For this, he was ridiculed and despised by many in society. Thomas Paine once said that a sermon he heard at the age of eight impressed him with the cruelty inherent in Christianity and made him a rebel forever. It is my opinion that, because of this, he lived the rest of his life never to actually study the Bible or Christianity. Because he was a rebel forever to the Christian ...

Existence Of God Three Hundred
1,382 words... come, by this time, to see that the Old Testament from its manifestly false history of the world, with the tower of Babel, the rainbow at sign, ect. , ect. , and from its attributing to God the feelings of a revengeful tyrant, was no more to be trusted than the sacred books of the Hindoos, or the beliefs of any barbarian.

Nation Of Israel Jesus Christ
1,147 wordsPhilosophy of Religion There are two very simple and easy facts. One of them is felt by reverence and the other by experience. The fact which is felt by reverence is that god always pervades everywhere without any change. Several ages pass away, several Brahmas (creators of god) change, but the supreme essence remains the same. The fact which is felt by experience is that the whole world is kaleidoscopic; it is changing every moment and is turning to naught. Thus there are two facts: 1) God who ...
