Deism In American Thought

Bag om Deism In American Thought

Deism in American Thought is a comprehensive analysis of the history and development of deism in America. Written by scholars Riley and Woodbridge, the book explores the philosophical and religious movement of deism, which emerged in Europe during the Enlightenment and gained popularity in America during the 18th century. The authors examine the beliefs and practices of deists, who rejected traditional Christian doctrines and emphasized reason, natural law, and the existence of a distant, impersonal God. The book also explores the impact of deism on American culture and politics, including its influence on the founding fathers and the development of religious freedom in America. With its insightful analysis and historical context, Deism in American Thought is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of religion and philosophy in America.THIS 48 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: American Thought: From Puritanism to Pragmatism, by Woodbridge Riley.
