Cover of Thomas Paine: The Age of Reason (Barnes & Noble Library of Essential Reading) (ePUB)

Thomas Paine’s primary object in writing The Age of Reason was to call into question the conventional understanding of religion and to undermine the power of the Christian church. As provocative and controversial today as when Paine first wrote it, this incendiary work suggests what is necessary to transform religion into a social force that has its foundation in reason.
