Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1866 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XX. A NEW DISPUTANT AND NEW ARGUMENTS--FRESH NEWS FROM THE SPIRIT LAND--DOES EVERLASTINS MEAN FOREVER, OR WITHOUT END. The judge of the circuit court had been accustomed to pass a part of his time at their hospitable mansion, as often as business brought him to the town, near which Mr. Livingston and his daughter resided. The morning following the conversation which we have recorded in the last two chapters, Mr. Livingston met him at the post office, and invited him to dine with him. He had heard rumors of the great change which had taken place in his former friend, and could not forbear a jest at his expense. It was with Mr. Livingston, however, a matter too serious for mirth, and yet he felt some gratification in the prospect of gaining from the judge some information concerning the subject which had occupied Bo much of the time and thoughts of his daughter and himself, for the last few days. Judge Carrington had never been a professed infidel. He did not think it amiss to have some sort of religion, and preferred that which placed least restraint upon his inclinations. In the days when Edward Livingston was a reviler of the Bible, and a scoffer at its teachings, they had been boon companions, and it did not appear that his religious faith or feelings, created any barrier to their social intercourse or friendship. In fact, no infidel enjoyed more the abuse which the proud unbeliever was accustomed to pour out upon the Bible, and especially upon the ministers of the gospel. He had a special aversion to the people whom he was accustomed to style ' the orthodox' and delighted in those who professed what he was pleased to call a 'liberal christianity.' Trained in all the subtleties of legal reasoning, with a mind delighting to...

Pages : 524
Book Description
"Every serious student of woman suffrage must take account of this vital contemporary document, which tells the story of the struggle for woman suffrage in America from the first woman's rights convention in 1848 to the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment in 1920. Originally published in 1923, it gives the inside story of this remarkable movement, told by two ardent suffragists: Carrie Chapman Catt (of whom the New York Times wrote, 'More than anyone else she turned Woman Suffrage from a dream into a fact') and Nettie Rogers Shuler. Writing from vivid recollection, the authors offer some of their own ideas about what caused the United States to be the twenty-seventh country to give the vote to women when she ought 'by rights' to have been the first"--Unedited summary from book cover.

Organized Secularism in the United States
Author: Ryan T. Cragun
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110458659
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
There has been a dramatic increase in the percentage of the US population that is not religious. However, there is, to date, very little research on the social movement that is organizing to serve the needs of and advocate for the nonreligious in the US. This is a book about the rise and structure of organized secularism in the United States. By organized secularism we mean the efforts of nonreligious individuals to build institutions, networks, and ultimately a movement that serves their interests in a predominantly religious society. Researchers from various fields address questions such as: What secularist organizations exist? Who are the members of these organizations? What kinds of organizations do they create? What functions do these organizations provide for their members? How do the secularist organizations of today compare to those of the past? And what is their likely impact on the future of secularism? For anyone trying to understand the rise of the nonreligious in the US, this book will provide valuable insights into organized efforts to normalize their worldview and advocate for their equal treatment in society.
