Title: Query: Deism Sources
Post by: BloodEagle on August 02, 2009, 12:15:13 pm

Backstory:
Recently I've been interested in learning about Deism, yet Wikipedia fails to yield adequate results. (E.g., unsourced claims on what the basic beliefs are.)

Query:
Does anyone know of any good (see: trustworthy) sources regarding Deism?

What's wrong with the external links at the bottom of the wiki page?

Try Thomas Payne's The Age of Reason.

And if you're too lazy to read Payne then you're not actually interested in Deism as a philosophy.

A good old fashioned library might help.
