    . Déismes et déistes à l’âge classique
  • Author: Taranto (Pascal)
  • Abstract: Priestley seeks to found his apologetics on precisely those arguments which were regarded by apologists as leading inevitably to atheism, Spinozistic pantheism or anti-Christian deism. A sincere believer, he adopts all the premisses of traditional deism and declares that, by means of their coherence, he will protect Christianism from the deleterious effects of the Enlightenment.
