A Discourse Of The Liberty Of Prophesying: Showing The Unreasonableness Of Prescribing To Other Men's Faith

By Jeremy Taylor and Richard Cattermole

Book Overview

""A Discourse of the Liberty of Prophesying"" is a philosophical work written by Jeremy Taylor in the 17th century. In this book, Taylor argues that it is unreasonable for individuals to prescribe their beliefs and opinions to others, as everyone should have the freedom to express their own beliefs and ideas. He discusses the importance of religious tolerance and the dangers of religious intolerance, which he believes can lead to violence and oppression. Taylor also explores the concept of faith and how it is a personal matter that should not be dictated by others. Overall, ""A Discourse of the Liberty of Prophesying"" is a powerful argument for the importance of intellectual freedom and the need for individuals to be able to express their beliefs without fear of persecution or censorship.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
