A Discourse of Free Thinking is a book written by Anthony Collins in 1713. The book is a response to the rise of a group of people called Free Thinkers who were challenging the traditional religious beliefs of the time. Collins argues that free thinking is a natural and necessary part of human inquiry and that it should be encouraged rather than suppressed. He also challenges the idea that religious beliefs should be accepted without question, and argues that reason and evidence should be the basis for all beliefs. The book was controversial at the time of its publication and was banned in several countries. However, it had a significant impact on the development of modern philosophy and the Enlightenment movement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
