The Age of Reason is one of the most powerful thought provoking books ever written about God and religion. It smashes through the ancient wall of superstition and fear of the "revealed" religions with the unstoppable battering ram of our God-given reason! Thomas Paine was often attacked for having written this enlightening book, but his arguments and profound observations found within have never been defeated. This edition contains the seldom seen third part to The Age of Reason and, unlike any other editions, also includes all of Thomas Paine's known essays and correspondence regarding God, Deism, the Bible and theology.
