The Trial Of Theism

- Accused Of Obstructing Secular Life (1877)

Bag om The Trial Of Theism

The Trial of Theism: Accused of Obstructing Secular Life is a book written by George Jacob Holyoake in 1877. The book presents an argument against theism, which is the belief in the existence of a god or gods. Holyoake argues that theism obstructs secular life, which is the separation of religion and government.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a historical overview of theism and its impact on society. Holyoake argues that theism has been used to justify oppression, persecution, and war throughout history. He also argues that theism has hindered scientific progress and the development of rational thought.The second part of the book presents a legal case against theism. Holyoake uses legal language and arguments to present the case that theism is guilty of obstructing secular life. He argues that theism violates the principle of freedom of thought and expression, and that it is incompatible with democracy and the rule of law.Overall, The Trial of Theism: Accused of Obstructing Secular Life is a thought-provoking book that challenges the role of religion in society. It presents a compelling argument against theism and raises important questions about the relationship between religion and government.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
