The Folly And Unreasonableness Of Atheism: Demonstrated From The Advantage And Pleasure Of A Religious Life (1699)

The Folly and Unreasonableness of Atheism: Demonstrated from the Advantage and Pleasure of a Religious Life is a book written by Richard Bentley in 1699. The book is a defense of religious belief and an attack on atheism. Bentley argues that atheism is foolish and unreasonable because it denies the existence of God and the benefits of a religious life. He maintains that belief in God is necessary for moral behavior and that atheists are more likely to engage in immoral behavior. Bentley also argues that a religious life brings happiness and fulfillment, while atheism leads to despair and emptiness. The book is written in a persuasive and argumentative style and draws on philosophical and theological arguments to support its claims. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the intellectual and religious debates of the late 17th century.The Faculties Of Humane Souls, The Structure Of Animate Bodies, And The Origin And Frame Of The World, In Eight Sermons.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
