Description

Description from Internet Archive (opens in a new tab)

Supernatural Religion is a critical examination of the supernatural elements in religious doctrines, focusing on miracles, prophecy, and divine authority. Published anonymously under the pseudonym “E.L.,” this work challenges traditional views of divine revelation and argues for a rationalist approach to faith and scripture. It was widely debated in theological circles and had a significant impact on liberal Christianity. This edition preserves the full text of a controversial and thought-provoking inquiry into the nature of spirit, consciousness, and the limits of religious belief.
