Beskrivelse af Common Sense
Common Sense is a book written by Jean Meslier, a French Catholic priest, in the 18th century. The book is a collection of Meslier's thoughts and beliefs on religion, morality, and politics. Meslier was a staunch atheist and his work is considered to be one of the earliest and most radical critiques of religion.In Common Sense, Meslier argues that religion is a tool used by the ruling class to control the masses. He claims that the idea of an all-powerful god is a myth, and that the universe is governed by natural laws. Meslier also argues that morality is not dependent on religion, but rather on reason and empathy.The book is divided into three parts. The first part is a critique of Christianity, in which Meslier argues that the Bible is full of contradictions and immoral teachings. The second part is a critique of religion in general, in which Meslier argues that all religions are based on superstition and fear. The third part is a call to action, in which Meslier urges his readers to reject religion and embrace reason and empathy.Common Sense was not published during Meslier's lifetime, as he feared persecution from the Church. The book was discovered after his death and has since become a classic of atheist literature. It has been influential in the development of modern atheism and secularism, and has inspired many other writers and thinkers to question the role of religion in society.THIS 290 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Superstition in All Ages, by Jean Meslier.
