A Discourse Of Freethinking: Occasioned By The Rise And Growth Of A Sect Called Freethinkers (1713) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781164075721)

""A Discourse of Freethinking"" is a book written by Anthony Collins in 1713. The book is a response to the rise of a group of people called Freethinkers, who were questioning traditional religious beliefs and practices. Collins argues that freethinking is not only a legitimate intellectual pursuit but also a necessary one for the progress of society. He defends the right of individuals to think and express their ideas freely, without fear of persecution or censorship. Collins also critiques the authority of organized religion and the dangers of blind faith. The book is considered an important work in the history of philosophy and religious studies, as it challenges traditional beliefs and encourages critical thinking.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
