Principles of Secularism

by George J. Holyoake

In 'Principles of Secularism', George Jacob Holyoake, a prominent English secularist and advocate for freethought, delves into the concept of secularism as a separation of church and state in all aspects of life. He argues for the benefits of a secular education, promoting rational thought and critical thinking, and advocates for a secular society that upholds individual liberty and freedom from religious coercion. The pamphlet addresses the historical persecution of freethinkers, highlighting the importance of moral principles and social reform in achieving a just and equitable society.
