Book excerpt: Before his arrest and imprisonment in France, knowing that he would probably be arrested and executed, Paine, following in the tradition of early eighteenth-century British deism, wrote the first part of "The Age of Reason," an assault on organized "revealed" religion combining a compilation of inconsistencies he found in the Bible with his own advocacy of deism, calling for "free rational inquiry" into all subjects, especially religion. "The Age of Reason" critique on institutionalized religion resulted in only a brief upsurge in deistic thought in America, but would later result in Paine being derided by the public and abandoned by his friends.

Excerpt: ... first cause eternally existing, of a nature totally different to any material existence we know of, and by the power of which all things exist; and this first cause man calls God. It is only by the exercise of reason, that man can discover God. Take away that reason, and he would be incapable of understanding any thing; and, in this case, it would be just as consistent to read even the book called the Bible to a horse as to a man. How then is it that those people pretend to reject reason? Almost the only parts in the book called the Bible, that convey to us any idea of God, are some chapters in Job, and the 19th Psalm; I recollect no other. Those parts are true deistical compositions; for they treat of the Deity through his works. They take the book of Creation as the word of God, they refer to no other book, and ell the inferences they make are drawn from that volume. I insert, in this place, the 19th Psalm, as paraphrased into English verse by Addison. I recollect not the prose, and where I write this I have not the opportunity of seeing it. The spacious firmament on high, With all the blue ethereal sky, And spangled heavens, a shining frame Their great original proclaim. The unwearied sun, from day to day Does his Creator's power display, And publishes to every land, The work of an Almighty hand. Soon as the evening shades prevail, The moon takes up the wond'rous tale, And nightly to the list'ning earth Repeats the story of her birth; Whilst all the stars that round her burn, And all the planets, in their tarn, Confirm the tidings as they roll, And spread the truth from pole to pole. What though in solemn silence all Move round this dark terrestrial ball; What though no real voice, nor sound, Amidst their radiant orbs be found, In...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Age of Reason This report of the proceedings on these Mock Trials, will be read with increasing interest as the human mind proceeds to burst the shackles of Priestcraft, and to expand over the boundless volume of Nature. Whatever lack of ability or of education the attempted Defence of the Defendant displays, still these pages are sufficient to shew the deluders and the deluded, that their delusion could not stand the examination he was prepared to make, and that brute force was found to be the only resource of the interested supporters of superstition, against free and fair discussion. Here the historian will find a connecting link to display the mischief and intolerance of all religion, by the sufferings of the various seceders from the religion of power from time to time. Let it be hoped that it will end here. Certain it is, that the delusion of religion is losing its hold, and that hypocrites and tyrants will not much longer make it an instrument of power to rob, or a rod of iron to rule the multitude. It cannot fail of being interesting to the reader to find inserted here a narrative of what occurred from the first publication of the Theological Works of Thomas Paine, down to the commencement of the Mock Trials. In the month of November, 1818, a rumour was afloat in London that the "Age of Reason" was on sale, or about to be published. The Priests were instantly in arms, and terror seemed to forbode that their shops were falling or being knocked down about their ears. Threats were made of the immediate seizure of the edition on its appearance (a circumstance which actually occurred in Pitt's time) but the publisher, was not to be intimidated, he knew too well the ground on which he stood, and how far he could go in the matter. Discussion occured in the public papers as to the propriety or impropriety of suppressing the publication, and it was evident to all that the bigots were silenced. At length the publication was ready on the 16th December, and in the evening of that day the walls of the metropolis were well placarded with the notice of publication. On the morning of the 17th, a messenger came from the Solicitor of the Treasury to enquire the actual publication and the price, but on finding they were sold at half a guinea the copy he retired, not having been furnished with money enough to make his purchase. In a very few minutes he returned for three copies, and was advised by the publisher to take half a dozen.

Book excerpt: The Age of Reason: Being an Investigation of True and Fabulous Theology, a deistic treatise written by eighteenth-century British radical and American revolutionary Thomas Paine, critiques institutionalized religion and challenges the inerrancy of the Bible. Published in three parts in 1794, 1795, and 1807, it was a bestseller in America, where it caused a short-lived deistic revival. British audiences, however, fearing increased political radicalism as a result of the French revolution, received it with more hostility. The Age of Reason presents common deistic arguments; for example, it highlights the corruption of the Christian Church and criticizes its efforts to acquire political power. Paine advocates reason in the place of revelation, leading him to reject miracles and to view the Bible as an ordinary piece of literature rather than as a divinely inspired text. The Age of Reason is not atheistic, but deistic: it promotes natural religion and argues for a creator-God.
