Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Kersey Graves (1813-1883) was an influential figure in the late 19th-century American freethought movement. He was a skeptic, atheist, rationalist, and reformist writer who gained popularity for his critical views on religion. Born in Pennsylvania, Graves was raised in a Quaker family and initially followed their observance. He received an education and worked as a teacher for over two decades. Graves became involved in radical freethinking circles within Quakerism and was disowned by his Quaker meeting due to his neglect of attendance and the establishment of a rival group. He advocated for abolitionism, language reform, and was associated with utopian communities that explored mesmerism and spiritualism. Graves married Lydia Michiner, and they had five children. His Quaker background influenced his rejection of clergy, creeds, and liturgy, emphasizing the importance of individual spiritual experiences. Graves passed away at his home near Richmond, Indiana.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Though his work has been discredited in some of its details, the atheistic writings and freethinking philosophies of American spiritualist KERSEY GRAVES (1813-1883) remain vital reading today for the more informed critiques of Christianity that they inspired. In this daring book, first published in 1880, Graves condemns the brutal Christian doctrine of eternal punishment through revealing the pagan origins of such concepts as the bottomless pit, lakes of fire and brimstone, the casting out of devils, and other foundational aspects of Christian belief. Students of comparative mythology, modern freethinkers, and anyone interested in demonic folklore will find this Victorian curio an intriguing exposition of ancient folklore.
