Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Reason and Revelation, Hand in Hand (1) Religion is a phantom of inconceivable outrage, which, like a ghost of horrid form, has led mankind captive into a slavery of unrequiting, fruitless toil and costly sacrifice; or else it is a service, the glory, sublimity, and full fruition of which will be but poorly comprehended until our earthly pilgrimage is ended and the soul is at rest in the land where angels dwell. (2) The Bible is but a record of hypocritical and sacrilegious pretensions, such as would eclipse the Koran, the Vedas, the Zend-a-vesta, the Book of Mormon, or any other book of sacred pretensions, which has ever hoodwinked mankind into a stupid mockery, senseless reverence, and idiotic devotion; or else it is a book containing a Divine Revelation, which has inspired the world with the infinite thought of God and the idea of human duty and destiny - and has thus done more to elevate and civilize our race and render it happy than all other instrumentalities combined.
