Flowers Of Freethought (First Series)

Flowers of Freethought (First Series)

by George William Foote

This book presents a collection of essays by George William Foote, a prominent figure in the freethought movement of the late 19th century. Written over a decade, these essays originally appeared in Foote's magazine, *The Freethinker*. Foote addresses a wide range of topics related to religion and Christianity, including biblical stories, the concept of the devil, blasphemy, miracles, the role of women, and the prevailing social attitudes towards freethought. The essays are united by Foote's forceful argument for atheism as the logical and natural stance on matters of faith and deity.
